what is alpha?

Alpha is an open and informal conversation about life, spirituality, and the person of Jesus without judgement or pressure. We want to hear your thoughts and questions as we explore these themes together without the pressured atmosphere that usually comes with these conversations. 

The course is made up of a series of sessions exploring faith, run over ten weeks. Each evening starts with some kai before watching a talk that looks at a different question and is designed to create conversation. Everyone is welcome.

A typical night looks like this:

WELCOME: Enjoy some food and meet some new people

WATCH: Each Alpha session features a 25 minute film. Designed to inspire more questions than provide answers, these short films explore the big issues around faith and unpack the basics of Christianity, addressing questions such as Who is Jesus? and How can we have faith?

DISCUSS: After the film you are invited to join your hosts and others in small groups where you can share your thoughts about faith and life and hear from others. You can feel free to say whatever you like or as little as you like, it's up to you.
