How would I get in to learned ancient Greek?
Seems like the place to ask. I could try and take extra classes for it at uni, but is it more worthwhile to learn it on my own?

Eastern Orthodoxy celebrates the date on the correct day. It is the western sects that invent new dates new customs new traditions etc and thus divert Christianity from its original core.

You can self study
Athenaze = easy
Reading Greek (UK classical something)= moderate
Learn to Read Greek (Yale)= Hard
But classes always help.

Christianity was diverted from its original core when Paul had his acid trip

I would learn Modern Greek. Vocabulary and pronunciation of Greek has changed a lot, but the syntax and grammar has remained fairly consistent. After learning modern Greek (which will be fairly hard, it is very different from Romance and Germanic languages), it will be relatively easy to learn Ancient/Koine Greek.
Orthodox Churches often have classes to learn Koine Greek.
