How can I have faith?

What is Christianity is all about?

Jesus - and a relationship with Him, is at the heart of Christianity. Christian’s believe that Jesus is God’s son, we recognise him has fully God, as Lord of all and we long to be in a relationship with Him.

What next?

We’d love to invite you to an alpha course. Alpha is for anyone interested in exploring questions of life and spirituality. We will spend a number of weeks considering some of the big questions in life including:

What can I really believe? Does prayer work? Who is Jesus? Is there a God?

Our next one starts on January 10th 2024 and you can sign up by clicking the link below.

You might find it helpful to watch this first video to give you a taste.

Ok, I’ve done that - what else?

You could try, The Bible, Church or Prayer

The Bible

Most people know that the Bible is a book about God written a long time ago, starting with Genesis. But the Bible is important because Christians believe it is the "word of God", which means that it is also one of the ways in which God speaks now. This is why they call it "living and active", ie. not just words written down, unlike other literature.

This Alpha video tells you a little more, but you could simply get a copy (it's the most sold book ever) and start to read. We recommend you start with one of the books about Jesus' life (Matthew, Mark, Luke and John) called the Gospels (which simply means, Good news, which it is!) - Mark's gospel is the shortest, and can be read in one sitting.

Church

Many people think of churches as buildings - and that's true to an extent. But some churches don't meet in church buildings! And churches are really about groups of people expressing their faith as a community.

Churches are open to all, you can even join us online via YouTube click below to find out more.

Prayer

Prayer is basically talking to God, as you would any other person. The Bible gives guidance on how to do it, but it also says that anyone can pray to God. Why not start by simply talking to God and telling Him what's worrying you. He'll be listening.

We have a page devoted to prayer on our website where you can even send your prayer requests in for others to pray for you.

You might find this book helpful, it's called How to Pray, by Pete Greig and is available from all good bookshops.
