The Talk

Filmed at Holy Trinity Brompton the set consists of the 15 talks which make up the Alpha course and are presented by Nicky Gumbel. However, if you would prefer to use a live speaker, the book Questions of Life by Nicky Gumbel provides the talks in written format.

The Meal

To run your course you will need to think about providing a meal and the Alpha Cookbook has been designed to help you find recipes for large numbers that are easy to prepare.

Worship

Experience shows that when you have more than 30 people on your Alpha course you can consider introducing worship to your Alpha course. It is this element of the course that guests often find difficult at the beginning of the course but by the end they consider it the highlight. The Alpha Worship Pack has been designed to help you to introduce worship sensitively and includes a cd/tape, songbook, manual and teaching tape.

The Alpha Manual has been designed to help each guest follow the talks and provides space to make notes or record questions that they may want to raise in the small groups. On week 4 of the course the talk is ‘Why and How Should I Read the Bible?’ and 30 Days is a book designed to give a 30 day introduction to the Bible. You may therefore want to have copies of 30 Days available to sell or give to your guests on Week 4.
