The Alpha course is a well-known course which introduces people to the basics of Christian faith and life. Over a series of weekly gatherings over a meal and discussion of DVD material, those who come get an understanding of what life is all about and what it means to live life in relationship with Jesus Christ.
What happens on Alpha? We will meet at 6.30 (and it’s okay to come a bit later if you like), we’ll have a meal together and then watch a 30 minute programme which explores an aspect of faith and life. Then we have a chance to talk together and to ask further questions (and any question is okay). You are welcome to come and try it out for an evening and see if this is a course for you. Our theme for this first week is
“Christianity – boring, untrue, irrelevant?”
Who is it for? For anyone, whether you think of yourself as religious or not, who wants a chance to think about the big questions of life and Christian faith. We will be running the course here at Millerston church on Monday evenings through the autumn, beginning on October 3rd. Sadly Bear Grylls will not be appearing in person in Millerston, but he is one of many people who have done the Alpha course and found that their faith came alive through it. You can hear his story here.
