About Alpha

Alpha is a ten-week course held one evening a week which explains the basics of Christianity in an informal home setting. Come and meet new people, share dessert and ask questions about the Christian faith in a safe friendly environment.

People attend Alpha for a wide variety of reasons - some want to investigate whether God exists, others may have gone to church occasionally but feel they have never really understood the basics of the Christian faith. Some just want to understand other people's beliefs better. Everyone is welcome.

The talks each week cover the following topics, which people are then free to discuss in the small groups afterwards:

Week 1   Who is Jesus? Week 2   Why did Jesus Die? Week 3   How can we have Faith? Week 4   Why and how do I Pray? Week 5   Why and how should I Read the Bible? Week 6   How does God Guide us? Week 7   How can I Resist Evil? Week 8   Why and how should I tell Others? Week 9   Does God Heal Today? Week 10   What about the Church? Day away   Who is the Holy Spirit? What does the Holy Spirit do? How can I be filled with the Holy Spirit? How can I make the most of the rest of my life?
