Alpha

The Alpha Course is an opportunity for anyone to explore the Christian faith in a relaxed, non-threatening manner over ten thought-provoking evenings and an away morning/day.

Stay Curious – Try Alpha

Alpha is a series of group conversations that freely explore the basics of the Christian faith in an open, friendly environment over 11 weeks.  At each Alpha session, you’ll watch a video episode on a different question of faith, and then have a chance to discuss it in a small group, sharing your thoughts and hearing what others think.  You can say anything you like, or nothing at all.

Topics include:

• Is there more to life than this?
• Who is Jesus?
• Why did Jesus die?
• How do I read the bible?
• How can I pray?
• How can I resist evil?

Each session starts with some food together and a chance to get to know the other guests.  About half-way through the course, there is an away day, looking at the topic of the Holy Spirit in more depth.  The course is free, there’s no pressure to come back, everyone is welcome.
