The Alpha course helps guests explore the meaning of life, revealing that Christianity can be every bit as relevant today as it was 2000 years ago. The course consists of a series of talks addressing key issues to the Christian faith. Topics include the relevance of Christianity; Who Jesus is and why He died; faith; reading the Bible; prayer; the Holy Spirit and His work in our lives; making the best of life; resisting evil; telling others; healing; and the Church.
At the beginning of each session a light meal is shared together to give people a chance to get to know each other. The meal is followed by a talk. After each talk we divide into small groups to discuss the topic of the evening, ask questions and express opinions. Alpha is a place where no question is too simple or too hostile. Alpha is for everyone, especially those wanting to investigate Christianity, new Christians, newcomers to the church and those who want to brush up on the basics of Christianity.
The Alpha course is presented during the first and third term of the year.
