Anne's Experience
of Alpha
I went along to the Alpha
Course; it seems a long while ago now. (It was January 2009.) My faith has
always been deep but many times it has been weak and far from strong especially
over the last few years.
So I was “persuaded” that
what I needed was to go on the Alpha Course. I went along with my friend Rachel
(for moral support). I was convinced that all the people there would be very
knowledgeable and know the Bible “word for word” – inside out; chapter and
verse.
The Nicky Gumbel DVD talks
were a joy to listen to. Following each talk, as a group, we threw our
questions at Neil and discussed Nicky’s talk.
I was glad I went. What I
gained is not much to write down but it was pretty big for me – a deeper
awareness that I am really happy in my faith and that God is always there for
me.
So if anybody is thinking
‘shall I or shan’t I go to an Alpha Course?’ do it! You will be glad that you
did – I was. |
