Advanced Bible Study using Church Greek

People want to know Greek. They want to know the language of the New Testament. They don't want to have to trust English to get at the words of God. They want to use Greek in their Bible study.

If you feel this way, then Church Greek is for you. Church Greek is a new approach to learning Greek where you are actually learning the language but you are also making efficient use of the tools. It cuts way down on memorization and review and enhances Bible Study.

Church Greek is built around several of Bill Mounce's resources. Bill is also working on a college/seminary class and a weekend seminar for teaching Church Greek in the local church. Links are provided below so you can purchase the books from Amazon.com or ChristianBooks.com.
