Alpha
Next course starts on Tuesday 17th January 2012 at 10am and 7:30pm.
Ever wondered what it's all about?
Alpha at Brickhill is an opportunity for anyone to explore the Christian faith in a relaxed setting over a series of thought-provoking weekly sessions.
Who is it for?
The Alpha course is for everyone, especially:
- People who want to investigate Christianity
- New Christians
- Newcomers to the Church
- People wanting to brush up on the basics of Christianity
Our courses usually attract a diverse range of guests of different ages and backgrounds, holding many different viewpoints. Guests attend for a variety of reasons - some want to investigate whether God exists; others are concerned about what happens after death. Some people have particular questions that they would like to discuss; others want to understand other people's beliefs or would like to explore what life is all about. Many guests have never been to church, others may have attended church occasionally but feel they have never really understood the basics of the Christian faith. All are welcome just to come and explore.
When and where?
The current course runs on Tuesdays at 10am at Brickhill Baptist Church centre. A further course is expected to be started on Tuesday evenings, if you might be interested in this please let us know.
How the course works
The course is based around small groups, hosted by one or two leaders whose role is to facilitate and encourage discussion.
There is a short talk, which looks at a different aspect of the Christian faith each week. This is then followed by a time of discussion in the small groups, where everyone is welcome to contribute, ask questions and discuss with the rest of the group. The emphasis is upon exploration and discovery in a relaxed and informal environment.
Alpha courses normally run every Tuesday for up to 10 weeks. For those available during the daytime there is a morning course from 10.00am-12noon (with crèche available if required). The evening course starts with light refresments at 7.30pm.
Course content
Each talk will cover one of the following topics, which people are free to discuss in their groups afterwards:
- Does God exist?
- Who is Jesus?
- What about the resurrection?
- Why did Jesus die?
