How to run Alpha
A practical guide for anyone helping to plan or host Alpha.
Alpha is a space to explore life, faith, and meaning in a relaxed, friendly environment. It's a place where people can ask honest questions and have real conversations without pressure or judgment.
Every Alpha session has three key tangible ingredients and three intangible ones, that together make the experience truly life-giving.
Running Alpha is simple and preparation makes all the difference. Start with prayer and partnership.
What does an Alpha session actually look like in action? Explore the suggested flow for a typical session.
Alpha conversations thrive on warmth, curiosity, and authenticity. Hosts facilitate the conversation, help guests feel at ease, and guide gently.
One of the most special and transformative moments in the Alpha journey. It's where guests step away from the busyness of everyday life to pause, connect, and encounter God.
Prayer is the foundation of every Alpha. It's the single most important thing you can do to prepare, run, and support your Alpha.
Everything from our Team Guides, training videos, promotional materials, the Alpha App, and more.
We would love to meet you, pray with you, and encourage you as you prayerfully and practically seek to create space for guests.
