Greek II
A continuation of New Testament Greek that consolidates core morphology and syntax while steadily expanding vocabulary. Through guided translation of selected passages, you will strengthen parsing skills, internalize common constructions, and cultivate sustainable sight‑reading habits. The course emphasizes responsible use of lexical and grammatical tools so that your reading moves from word-by-word decoding to clear, contextual comprehension in service of faithful exegesis and ministry.
The Rev. Dr. Rich Herbster came to Trinity in 2001 as a local pastor. His experience and passion for teaching biblical languages led to opportunities as adjunct faculty, and his involvement grew, particularly in forming the Presbyterian Studies Track of the MDiv. He is both a pastor and seminary professor, parallel and mutually beneficial ministry pathways. As a pastor, he teaches with real-world context in view. As a professor, he continues to learn and grow, benefiting the congregation.
Homiletics is a particular focus of Dr. Herbster's work. Seeing seminarians discover their voice as preachers is a source of great joy. His prayer is to provide guidance enabling students to best honor the Lord from the pulpit. His relationships with faculty and students have extend beyond the classroom as they worship, eat, and share life together, with many relationships persisting for years.
What Dr. Herbster loves most is seeing students passing football and frisbee in the Commons, families with young children scampering about, and students launching into lifelong ministry. He prays students will be the leaders churches desperately need. He has a wife and six children and loves family activities, especially hiking, kayaking, and walking in the woods. He also enjoys physical labor and building things.
Trinity is to be an evangelical seminary in the Anglican tradition. To this end we develop Christian leaders who can plant, renew, and grow churches that make disciples of Jesus Christ.
