The Alpha Guide is a companion to either the Alpha Film Series or Alpha with Nicky Gumbel. This guide is divided up by session with an easy-to-read outline so that guests can follow along during each talk. With simple bullet-point organization and plenty of room for notes, the guide functions as an invaluable resource to the guest during Alpha, and as a reference tool for individual reflection long after Alpha. It is considered an essential resource for Alpha guests as well as the host and helpers on Alpha. Alpha creates an environment of hospitality where people can bring their friends, family, and work colleagues to explore the Christian faith, ask questions, and share their point of view. Alpha makes it easy to invite friends to have spiritual conversations which explore life's biggest questions in a safe and respectful way. Alpha's approach to hospitality, faith, and discussion is designed to welcome everyone, especially those who might not describe themselves as Christians or church-goers. Each session includes time for a large group meal, short teaching, and small group discussion.

UK church attendance hemorrhaging and one course is hailed as the most effective tool for "turning back the tide." From small beginnings in the early 1970s, Alpha has grown to become a global success. Churches from across the denominational spectrum have enthusiastically seized upon the course, seeing it as the remedy for declining church attendance. Inside Alpha explores such claims through richly grounded qualitative research on six Alpha courses. It assesses Alpha's primary aim of converting non-churchgoers and its longer-term goal of spiritual maturity (Colossians 1:28-29). It questions whether the Alpha program is as successful as it claims at uniting evangelism and discipleship, mission and spiritual formation. This is an invaluable study for those--in the academy and the church--who have an interest in ecclesiology and mission. How exactly is one to understand conversion? What is it to "be Christian"? How does ambiguity and doubt fit within one's journey of faith? The importance of this work is in discovering--through an engagement with Alpha--how people might appropriately be initiated into and discipled within the Christian faith in contemporary culture.

Written by a colleague: Alpha is a tremendous worldwide hit, yet most groups deploying it will - at times - be somewhat disappointed by the amount of resulting fruit. Holy Trinity Brompton readily acknowledges this. Even groups faithfully adhering to the official advice that has so far been published can still find many non-Christian attendees disappearing during, or shortly after, the program. Proven Alpha Course Tips identifies several previously unrecognized causes of this problem and has been created to help every group using Alpha to see much greater fruit. "Very well written and laid out.... Very well researched and extremely informative. It''s positive and a manageable size.... It''s a ''must read''" - Phil Phillimore, Alpha course leader Drawing on profound knowledge of the Alpha resources and interviews with Nicky Gumbel, John Fairhaven has created a most practical work. Proven Alpha Course Tips will encourage and excite readers with its unique insights. In view of the substantial amount of time and effort spent implementing each program - and on getting unbelievers to attend them - this book represents a very wise acquisition. Written by someone who cares passionately about his subject, the material in this new volume will be of great benefit to every individual in a group running any type of Alpha course.

With its well designed materials, and ready to use format, many churches throughout the UK have taken up the Alpha course enthusiastically. Many others are considering whether they could use it to boost their evangelism by making the most of its apparent runaway success. But are we hearing the full story? Chris Hand has carefully observed the development of the Alpha Course over several years and offers an overview of its aims and methods, and asks whether it provides an authentic full presentation of the Gospel.--p. 4 of cover.
