Is there more to life? Why am I here? Is there a God?
In today's world, with all the unknowns and everything changing so quickly, it's understandable that we have questions. What does this all mean?
Alpha Online is a series of group conversations that explore life, spirituality, and faith through a Christian lens. We create a non-judgmental and open environment where it is easy for anyone who is an atheist, skeptic, or just curious about faith to explore questions of life with new friends.

Who is Alpha for?
Alpha is for everyone, aged 18+ –no question is out of bounds and you are free to discuss as much or as little as you wish. We don’t assume any background knowledge or belief in Christianity and everyone is welcome.
Do I have to talk and share my thoughts?
No. You may remain silent the entire time if you wish.I don't belong to SPX, and don't know anyone. Is that ok?
Yes. Most people come to Alpha without knowing anybody else in the course. By the end of the course, most people become good friends. Alpha is a great way to meet new people.
