Test out of Beginning Greek in 10 Weeks!

In less than 3 months you can learn everything you need to develop confidence reading and studying New Testament Greek!

Really grateful for this amazing programme!
It never occurred to me until recently that I could ever read the Bible in Greek. A couple of days ago I had "Εἶπεν δὲ αὐτοῖς ὁ Ἰησοῦς, Ἐγώ εἰμι ὁ ἄρτος τῆς ζωῆς" pop up in a Bible app and I understood it!! It's great to have an immediate reward for the Small Steps already taken!
I've gone from total beginner to being able to understand basic sentences in a fortnight; thank you so much for making this possible!

Beginning Greek Accelerator

You are right on time

You’re right on time to join our small, dedicated group which will 
accelerate through beginning Greek in just 10 weeks 

Starting June 3, 2024

 
Finish in time for the Spring Semester! 
 
But will this be a good use of your next 10 weeks? 

The most important 10 weeks of your life?

You’re not studying Greek just to tick a box. 

Reading the New Testament in the original Greek opens up
a whole new way of understanding the word of God. By the end of the next 10 weeks you’re going to have opened up that understanding for yourself – that value is incalculable.

By the end of this 10 week course you will have a firm foundation in the language…

… You will be able to read at least 3 books of the Greek New Testament… 

… And you will be poised to quickly learn to read 4 more books in a space of months.

The ultimate goal of this course is not just to help you complete beginning Greek. The Accelerator course is designed to help you put aside translations and engage directly with the word of God in the original languages for life.

Kick-start a lifetime of immersion in the language and worldview of the original authors of the Bible with the Beginning Greek in Small Steps Accelerator Course. 

In 10 weeks this course will set you on the path to eliminate the need for translations, to read the New Testament with greater clarity, to gain new confidence in the Bible, to become more efficient in your study and to see connections in scripture that you couldn’t see before. 

A lifetime of reading the New Testament in Greek? That sure sounds like a good use of 10 weeks to me. 

 

I lacked structure to move forward. Without direction and others to talk to and learn from, I didn't know where to go next...

...BMA provided a language culture / environment for Greek and Hebrew. There is order now for me and a clear path for success. I have a compass now (no longer lacking direction) and the progressive learning path makes sense and works! Office hours and cohorts are so valuable to answer questions and get over the small language hurdles that come up. 

HUGE change. I'm in the languages EVERY day. It's a way of life, part of my devotions and prayers. It is already benefitting me in my studies and the instruction I give at my local church. Lord willing, BMA will be with me for life... Why? Because I always want to be plugged in and growing in both Hebrew and Greek and there is always stuff to learn and review. What a joy. If I keep using it and stay immersed in the biblical languages, I won't lose it.

It's a wonderful biblical language environment so it's a part of my life now. I love it and I'm very thankful for this ministry.

I learned Greek at Bible college back in 2004 but lost it all because of the busyness of ministry. Since then I've tried many different methods to relearn it but failed every time until I started on the Greek Mastery Membership. What I really like about the membership is:

1. Its system of learning is clear and systematic. It breaks things down into manageable steps, is easy to follow and you get to see your progress towards the goal of reading the entire GNT.

2. Darryl Burling is really knowledgable, friendly, helpful and he really wants you to be able to read the entire GNT

3.The Community - learning Greek in the courses together with other people who are passionate about the GNT really spurs me on.

Since joining the program I've regained all the Greek that I've lost since Bible college, am now able to read the GNT in my devotion and use it in my sermon prep. I am looking forward to be able to read the whole GNT.

Why learning Greek before seminary helped me

I’m excited that you’ve got ambitious academic goals, but I know what it’s like to have deadlines to meet those goals. 

Like you, I had deadlines for my academic studies. Not only was I eager to maximize the time I had in seminary and focus my studies to make the most of the faculty and courses available,  but I also had financial penalties if I didn’t meet those deadlines. 

Fortunately, I completed Beginning Greek before I started my seminary training, which gave me additional electives and allowed me to jump into more advanced Greek in my first semester. 

I’ve designed Beginning Greek in Small Steps, to be a clear, detailed, and incredibly flexible approach to learning to read and study the original text of the New Testament to prepare you for your academic studies. 

I hope you’ll join us for our Beginning Greek Accelerator, starting June 3, 2024!

4 benefits from the Beginning Greek Accelerator you won't want to miss

If you’re thinking about starting seminary, here are four excellent reasons to take advantage of the Beginning Greek Accelerator.

1. Jump into advanced Greek right away

The curriculum of some seminaries assumes you’ve already completed beginning Greek before you start. That means you might need to use two electives to complete beginning Greek. Completing beginning Greek before seminary means you have more elective options. 

It also means you can benefit by developing your Greek exegesis skills in your first semester, giving you the opportunity to take more advanced Greek courses as you progress. 

Even if you’re not planning on going to seminary, completing beginning Greek qualifies you to take more advanced Greek courses with Biblical Mastery Academy if you’d like to take them!

2. Complete the curriculum faster or reduce your course load

If beginning Greek is a requirement that you’d normally include in your academic course of study, check with your seminary to see if they’ll accept cross credit from another institution on completion of beginning Greek, or allow you to test out of beginning Greek for credit. This would reduce your total semester load by two classes, possibly allowing you to finish earlier, or to reduce your course load.

3. Test out of beginning Greek

Testing out of beginning Greek is a common practice in seminaries. For many the test is comprised of parsing, and translation, often of texts from 1 John. 

Beginning Greek in Small Steps is designed to give you the skills and vocabulary to be able to read and translate 1-3 John when you finish. In fact, inside the Greek Mastery Membership this is what we do right after completing beginning Greek!

4. Save money

Taking Greek in seminary can be expensive. Normally you’ll pay per credit hour for beginning Greek, and often beginning Greek is broken into two courses, each of which is three credit hours. 

For the sake of this discussion, let’s assume you’re going to pay $500 per credit hour. Six credit hours of beginning Greek will cost you $3000. If you had the opportunity to get through beginning Greek before you start seminary, that’s $3000 you can put toward any class you want, or that you might not even need to spend! 

Many seminaries charge more than $500 per credit hour, not many charge less, and not much less.

I was trying to study Greek on my own, reading a Greek grammar and doing the exercises in it and watching the videos that came with it. But I found that my learning still lacked structure and it was hard to keep going at it alone.

BMA gave me both structure and motivation to keep learning. Every lesson comes with videos, readings, pre-made vocab cards, and in-depth homework assignments that don’t just help me learn new concepts but also keep reviewing old ones, topping it all off with a healthy amount of fun translation exercises. All that was already a huge help. But then the real gift was the cohort calls, where I could actually discuss my answers and difficulties with other students at my level and get personal help from Darryl and other professionals! There is something so valuable about working things out in a live environment. I felt it has solidified and clarified my learning immensely.

I wanted to learn Greek for some time. After many years of reading and studying Scripture I wanted to be able to read the authors, thoughts and arguments in their own words. I had completely lost vision in one of my eyes, and received the bad news from my doctor, that I would likely lose vision in the other eye. I knew I only had a certain amount of time to achieve my goal, but I had no idea where to start. Which of the many grammars should I use? What tools and resources did I need? Where can I go to get questions answered?


Despite the challenges of visual impairment, I wake up every day with a plan of what I want to accomplish, a strategy of how to do it, and the satisfaction of knowing the progress that I have made to this point. The instruction, course, materials, fellowship, and support I get as a BMA member are invaluable. My vision is worse today than it was when I started. In the end, however, far I get it will have been a journey worth taking.

I did not know what was needed to learn the language. I didn’t know where to start, and after beginning Greek I had no idea how to keep going and learn how to read the Greek New Testament.

I had no idea where to start, and I did not have a roadmap to be able to accomplish my goal.

BMA clearly laid how out to get started, and a path to be able to read the entire Greek New Testament.

When I was able to start translating 1 John with limited tools. I could actually read and understand portions of the Greek without having to use tools. It was a great feeling knowing that all the memorization was paying off.

I am able to read all of 1 John in Greek, and using BMA’s roadmap Lord willing I will get through the entire Greek New Testament using small consistent steps. Being able to read the original language brings such joy and clarity and confidence that makes the struggles of learning the language worth it.

Here's what makes the Beginning Greek Accelerator different (and awesome)

Short, Focused Intensity

It normally takes a year to learn to read and study the text of 1 John. 

Most grammars are designed to be completed in two semesters, and there is not much flexibility in the cohort to change that pace. A lot can happen in a year which can interrupt your progress and make it hard to keep up. 

Completing a class in 10 weeks allows you to focus with more intensity over a short amount of time. The higher commitment keeps you motivated and engaged. After all, it’s only 10 weeks!  

A Clear Daily Assignment

The Beginning Greek Accelerator takes advantage of our new and flexible Beginning Greek in Small Steps course. 

Beginning Greek in Small Steps consists of 20 modules, each with three lessons in it. In addition, we have a review after every four modules. 

Each Module includes:

  • Three lessons (60 lessons total)
  • Bonus instructions (e.g. how to use Logos Bible Software as you learn)
  • Vocabulary to learn

The Beginning Greek Accelerator takes you through Beginning Greek in Small Steps with one lesson to complete each day

Each lesson consists of:

  •  A video explaining the concepts in this lesson
  • Downloadable grammar notes (with instructions for building your own personal book in Logos)
  • Our worksheet to help you Learn the concepts and review previous lessons
  • Exercises that help you internalize and practice the material you’ve learned
  • Downloadable slides
By completing one lesson each day (estimated about 2-3 hours throughout the day) you will develop the skills and understanding to read and study 1 John and beyond. 

More Help

The Beginning Greek Accelerator gives you more access to instructors during the 10 week program than any other program we know of. 

First we have two exclusive weekly calls designed to help you through the assigned work each week. 

Each week you will work through two modules of Beginning Greek in Small Steps, each consisting of three lessons. We host a live call on zoom twice a week (Monday and Thursday) where we explain clearly what to do each day this week, discuss and review anything you need help with or that was unclear, and introduce you to the content in the next few lessons. 

We post the replays of these calls right after the call finishes.

But that’s not all.

We also have an exclusive Beginning Greek Accelerator chat. If you get stuck, you can always leave a message in our Beginning Greek Accelerator chat, and help will be at hand! Our instructors are located in different timezones around the world, meaning we can normally answer quickly.

Whether you’re new or your Greek has rusted over decades of neglect, we’ll break everything down using our proven framework, so you can make small, consistent steps every day

I knew that I needed structure, consistency, and accountability and that is exactly what I got with Biblical Mastery Academy. I have been a member for almost 2 years and I can guarantee you there is no way I would’ve advanced the way I have if I had continued what I was doing.

Since joining the membership just over 2 years ago I now have only 5 books of the New Testament left to read. I have learnt over 4000 of the approximate 5300 vocabulary and am progressing in my ability to just pick up my GNT and read without helps.
