What course leaders say
"A lot of people live their lives without anybody listening
to them very much. But when they come to the Alpha course
suddenly they discover that people are interested in what
they've got to say. Alpha just by its structure, empowers
people who often have very little power or freedom in their
lives"
"An Alpha course, in my view, is an excellent form of
teaching for those with doubts or uncertainties, and a marvellous
way of bridging the gap between the very dull type of Christianity
that use to be ladled out at most public schools... and worship
that is available for practising Christians today"
"People are struggling with effective evangelism. We
don't have to prove Alpha works -It just does!"
"It's as though suddenly everyone has started pulling
on the oars at the same time and in the same direction. It
has given us a common purpose and momentum to our ministry"
"We have been greatly blessed by Alpha - it has united
our leadership, brought the unchurched into a relationship
with Christ and it is the most useful marriage and baptismal
guidance programme we have ever used"
"I got up to the pulpit and I looked at my congregation
and a third of the people were Alpha graduates"
"It is wonderful to learn that Christianity is not about
rules but relationships, not a philosophy but a fantastic
person and that it does relate to a modern lifestyle in the
2Oth century"
"Alpha is quite the most exciting thing I have done
in over 40 years as a Christian"
"The Alpha course has drawn us together, given us a
greater passion for evangelism and most importantly drawn
us closer to Jesus"
"Folk don't know what has hit the place. They ask, 'What
has happened to the minister?' 'What has happened to x, y,
z?' The impact is there to be seen"
