GWP Fellowship Conference '26

Introductory
New Testament Greek

A small-group, 5-day intensive for pastors and preachers. This isn't a lecture hall with hundreds of faces — it's an intimate classroom where you learn directly from your instructor, ask questions freely, and get personal attention every step of the way.

From zero Greek to reading Scripture in five days

Αα

The Greek Alphabet

Learn to recite, read, and write every letter — including vowels, diphthongs, breathing marks, and accent marks.

📖

Nouns & Verbs

Understand first declension nouns, present indicative verbs, and how to parse them in real New Testament passages.

🔍

Word Studies

Use Greek lexicons and theological dictionaries to do word studies that deepen your sermon preparation.

🛤️

A Clear Path Forward

Leave with a roadmap and resources to continue studying Greek on your own and exegete Scripture from the original text.

This isn't a 1,000-seat auditorium

Forget the massive conference hall where you're just another face in the crowd. This Greek Intensive is designed as a small, intimate classroom experience — the kind where your instructor knows your name, answers your questions on the spot, and adjusts the pace to make sure everyone is keeping up.

You'll work through exercises on your whiteboard, practice pronunciation out loud, and get real-time feedback from Carlo. When you're stuck on a declension or confused about a breathing mark, you raise your hand and get help — not submit a question card and hope it gets read.

This is how language is actually learned: shoulder to shoulder with a teacher who's invested in your progress.
