Invite your friends to Alpha.
With our upcoming Alpha course beginning April 28th, we consider what it is we’re doing when we invite our friends to the course.
Ultimately we’re inviting them to meet Jesus. And He always meets people just as they are.
From his interaction with the Samaritan woman (John 4:1-30) we see that Jesus, fully human, is not afraid to admit his needs. He meets us on equal and humble footing: bestowing dignity, breaking down barriers, treating us equally, offering the supernatural water of life that fully satisfies, and bringing the presence of God into the midst of us. Jesus is the one we’re all made for. And by inviting friends to Alpha we’re saying: come and see!
