Britton Road Church of Christ

If you have been part of a mission effort in the last 12 months, you will have the opportunity to share that experience with the rest of the congregation. You are invited to set up a display at the September Second Sunday Fellowship, September 12th. There will not be a formal presentation, but those attending the potluck will be able to visit with you during or after lunch. Please let Gail Nash or Debbie Powell know if you plan to participate. We hope you will take advantage of this opportunity to highlight the many ways Britton Road members are Points of Light in our community and throughout the world.

Please come and be a part of our Bible Classes on Sunday morning and Wednesday night. Pat Smith will be teaching the Sunday morning Adult Auditorium Class on “Questions God Asked” and Rob McElroy will teach the Wednesday Night Class.

You are invited to a Healthy Eating Brunch on Saturday, September 11th, at 10:00am in the fellowship room. Please bring a healthy snack or dish to share and come learn about healthy ingredients for cooking and eating. There will be a drawing for anyone who brings a healthy recipe to share.

The area churches of Christ are joining together to build two Habitat for Humanity homes in Del City. This three week blitz begins Saturday, September 25th. Please sign the sheet in the foyer if you would like to participate. There will be more details to come.

LEARN TO READ THE GREEK NEW TESTAMENT IN 10 WEEKS!

WHEN?  Once weekly, Sunday afternoons – 2:00-4:30 p.m. (September 12 through November 14, 2010)

WHERE?  Britton Road Church of Christ Fellowship Room COST:  Free!  Your only cost is the textbook.

INSTRUCTOR:  Charlie Powell, B.A., M.Th.   (27 yrs. experience teaching all levels of Greek)
Required textbook:  Learn to Read the Greek New Testament, 5^th edition, by Ward Powers.  You are responsible for ordering the book yourself.  The cost is about $65.00 with shipping by air. This textbook is available only directly from the author in Australia via the following website:  http://www.wardpowers.info/LTR.htm or contact the author at ward@bwardpowers.info.

COURSE AIM: By the end of the course the students will be able to read and understand the simpler parts of the Greek New Testament without the use of Greek tools.  They will be able to use Greek lexicons, concordances, grammars, language oriented Bible study software, and other study tools to work out harder texts.  They will also be able to do Greek word studies, basic syntactical and literary analysis.

Note:  This is a unique and intense approach to learning Greek.  You will cover the material normally learned in an entire first year of academic study of the Greek language.  You will begin reading from the Greek New Testament in Lesson Two.  Each 2 ½ hour session will be packed with new information – more than you can master.  Your instructor will specify the core material you need to master from each lesson.  The goal is to be exposed to the entire spectrum of required grammar for a first year student, while mastering only the essentials required to read the Greek New Testament.  This is also a great way to refresh your Greek language skills if you’ve studied Greek previously.

This method works.  You have to trust the teacher.  You have to trust the method. You have to be totally committed to the process, and to studying at least five hours each week outside of class each week.
