Alpha Course
We are looking forward to a new course starting some time in 2012. If you are interested in the Alpha Course, please let us know as we do keep a waiting list and send out regular updates. For further information about Alpha or our future courses, please contact Claire Stevens, our Alpha administrator at claireatbtc@aol.com or telephone 020 8466-0191.
What is Alpha?
The Alpha course is an opportunity for anyone to explore the Christian faith in a relaxed, non-threatening atmosphere. Each evening starts with a light meal, which gives everyone a chance to get to know each other, make friends and have fun. This is followed by a short presentation and then small group discussion, where opinions can be shared and any question asked – no question is too simple or too hostile!
Who is Alpha for?
Alpha is for anyone who wants to investigate Christianity, and also for new Christians and newcomers to the church.
What’s involved?
The series of 13 talks cover key topics including "Who is Jesus?" "Why did Jesus dies"? "Why and how to pray." "How to read the Bible" and "Who is the Holy Spirit?"
What does it cost?
Alpha is free. However we welcome a small contribution to the cost of the meal.
Why is it called Alpha?
In the last book of the Bible, Revelation, God refers to himself as “The Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end” (chapter 1:8), using the first and last letters of the Greek Alphabet. This course is a place to start asking questions and discovering answers and it directs people to God – hence it is called ‘Alpha’.
