Why Alpha
Many Christians see evangelism as uncomfortable, unnatural or only for a select few experts.
In fact, a recent Angus Reid study showed only 29% of religiously-committed people in Canada view evangelism positively.
80% of guests attend Alpha because of a personal invitation from someone they know. And they keep attending because of the relationships that develop during Alpha.
Evangelism is always relational and not just informational. This relational dimension of Alpha is what speaks loudest to a culture that suffers from increasing feelings of loneliness and social isolation, where the primary question is no longer “What do I believe?” but “Where do I belong?”
Re-imagining how the Church shares life, faith and Jesus.
