My desire for this website:
Well, I am not a Greek Scholar, and you will not find a long list of formal educational degrees or accolades here. I am simply a student of Scripture and my Greek New Testament, something that I will be until the day I die. I do not have all the answers, nor do I pretend to have them. The purpose of this ministry is to share resources, thoughts, and insights about Biblical Greek, with a special attention given to self-study. It is my hope that more Christians will discover a love and passion for God's Word in the original languages, and see that the average Christian can learn New Testament Greek apart from formal seminary education. If you want to begin the journey of being a student of Greek, please contact me, I would love to talk to you about it.

Some people study Biblical Greek as a hobby, others because they just like "old things". There are also those who are enamored with the details of grammar and exegesis, whose study is but a dead, dry, and intellectual exercise void of a living relationship with the one true God. There are yet others who study for the sole purpose of adding to a long list of formal educational accolades. My motives for studying are none of the aforementioned, rather I study Greek for the sole purpose of better knowing God's Word so that I may know Him. (John 17:3, 17).
If by learning the language of the New Testament we may know the Scriptures in a deeper and clearer way, and thus know the Jesus more personally, then we have every reason to diligently strive to attain this language. Someone may study Latin and consequently be able to read the Philosophers - fallible men. One may study Biblical Greek and read the New Testament - the one true God! Because of the love which God has given me for His Word, I have chosen the latter. NT Greek Studies is an outflow out of this love for His inerrant, perfect, and sufficient Word.
