The original series was updated in 2015, and features Alpha pioneer Nicky Gumbel presenting each topic with humourous anecdotes, personal experiences, and biblical relevancy. Every session begins with food, whether a three-course meal or a light snack – as eating food together creates space for people to connect, relax, and build friendships. The video talk follows, designed to engage the participants and invite conversation. Each session features a different question about life and faith; here’s the run-down:
-
Is There More to Life than This?
-
Who is Jesus?
-
Why did Jesus Die?
-
How Can I Have Faith?
-
Why and How Do I Pray?
-
Why and How Do I Read the Bible?
-
Who is the Holy Spirit?
-
What Does the Holy Spirit Do?
-
How Can I Be Filled with the Holy Spirit?
-
How Can I make the Most of the Rest of My Life?
-
How Can I Resist Evil?
-
Why and How Should I Tell Others?
-
Does God Heal Today?
-
