ALPHA
Alpha is an introduction to Christianity that is designed to look at some of the predominant questions asked related to Jesus, Faith & the church.
Alpha is for literally anyone who is curious about what Christians believe and why they believe it. You do not need to be a part of the church or have any specific beliefs. The discussions are not in a format where you will be grilled on your beliefs, but it does talk about Jesus and faith related matters. Perhaps you already believe in Jesus but have nagging questions about your faith. Perhaps you’ve never thought about faith much before. Whatever... Alpha is for everyone! WHAT QUESTIONS ARE COVERED?
- Week 1: Is There More to Life Than This?
- Week 2: Who is Jesus?
- Week 3: Why Did Jesus Die?
- Week 4: How Can We have Faith?
- Week 5: Why and How Do I Pray?
- Week 6: Why and How Do I Read the Bible?
- Week 7: How Does God Guide Us?
- Week 8: How Can I Resist Evil?
- Week 9: Does God Heal Today?
- Week 10: Why and How Should I Tell Others?
- Week 11: What About the Church
ALPHA NEXT
This is the companion course for those who have taken ALPHA and would like to learn more. We’ll have dinner together, then break out for a separate video series by Nicky Gumble and the Alpha Team. Followup questions throughout the small group portion allow you to express your thoughts and still be challenged by different perspectives.
SMALL GROUPS
For this set of small groups we are currently looking at a study written by our own Margo Macateer! It’s a study in the book of Esther. Another adult small group will be doing the a study called "Fearless" by Max Lucado. There are teaching videos with questions throughout to explore some Bible perspectives, hear from you and hear from other group members. We are also waiting confirmation on a small group related to supporting those with mental health.
TEEN SMALL GROUP
Yippee ki-yay! No western themes... the phrase just sounds like fun! We’re glad to have the return of a teen small group on Wednesday nights. Dinner included, come hang out and we’ll talk relevant Bible stuff for the circumstances impacting your life. It’s different for everyone. Lets hang out, talk about it and get some useful Jesus input!
KIDS PROGRAM
We are so pleased to be offering a mid week kids program this fall. Sometimes we’ll eat with parents, and sometimes do our own thing! This is for all kids in K-5. An opportunity to blow off some energy or get creative with crafts. These 11 weeks will be your chance to make some friends, have fun in the middle of the school week, and be encouraged with some Bible.
To register, we’ll just need your name, email & phone number. There is a $40 cost per registrant to cover your food & drinks for the 11 weeks. From there, communicaitons will flow to make sure you get what resources you need. Hope you can join us and YES... you can bring a friend!
