  • Frequently Asked Questions About the Catholicity of Alpha
    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT THE CATHOLICITY OF ALPHA The following article addresses frequently asked questions about the Catholicity of the Alpha course. Among these, some have asked, “Why is the Diocese of Green Bay using the Alpha course when Alpha did not originate in the Catholic Church?” In this document are four questions and answers to be aware of on how the Alpha course can support our discipleship efforts in the Catholic Church. Recall that the four step discipleship process in the Diocese of Green Bay is as follows: 1. Discover Jesus. 2 Follow Jesus. 3. Worship Jesus. Share Jesus. These questions are detailed below. Page 1: Did Alpha originate in the Catholic Church? Page 2: If the Catholic Church teaches that the Church of Christ exists fully only in the Catholic Church (Dominus Iesus, no. 14), then why is the Diocese of Green Bay using a non-Catholic resource? Page 3: Why is there an “Alpha in a Catholic Context”? What gaps does the “Catholic context” part of Alpha address? Page 4: Are members of the Catholic hierarchy and other key Catholic leaders endorsing Alpha? 1. Did Alpha originate in the Catholic Church? Alpha was founded in 1977 by Reverend Charles Marnham at Holy Trinity Brompton, an Anglican parish in London. However, Nicky Gumbel, an Anglican priest, oversaw the development and expansion of the Alpha course starting from the 1980’s to the present day. However, it sometimes takes an “outsider” to show us “insiders” how wise the Catholic Church is in her teachings. Incidentally, what Nicky Gumbel effectively integrated into the Alpha course are several discipleship principles and practices as taught by the Catholic Church.

  • The Alpha Course Satan's Latest Device To
    The Burning Bush—Online article archive The Alpha Course: Satan's latest device to deceive believers, Part 2. Continuing on from last month's issue, we wish to set before our readers some evidence of the falseness of the religion pro- moted by the Alpha Course, by showing you some of the testi- monies set forth as evidence of conversions under this deceit- ful course of instruction. Before we come to that, I wish to re- produce some comments by Rev. Paul Fitton of Dungannon Free Presbyterian Church, in an sermon entitled: "False Fire." 'A faulty message will invariably lead to a false profession. Notice that those referred to in Matthew 7 had the right expressions, (verse 22) "Lord, Lord." They were earnest for they said, "Lord, Lord." They endeavoured to serve the Lord (verse 22) "... Have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?" Yet they were not known of Christ for He says to them (verse 23) "I never knew thee." Why did Christ not know them? Why when they appeared to say the right things and do the right things did He say to them, "I never knew thee?" He didn't know them because they didn't come His way. They heard a message that was faulty and entered Another gate and walked an Alternative road which was more Appealing to them than the gate and road that Christ proclaimed. Consequently they had a false profession. They sincerely believed that they knew the Lord but they were wrong.

  • Alpha Course” – Is It of God?
    EVALUATING THE “ALPHA COURSE” – IS IT OF GOD? INTRODUCTION – It is said that the founder of the Alpha Course is Nick Gumbel. His full name is Nicholas Glyn Paul Gumbel. His father was a German Jewish lawyer from Suttgart during the early days of Nazi Germany. The family migrated to Britain and Nick’s father became a successful barrister in their new homeland. Nick’s mother, Murial, was quite successful in her own right. She served on the Greater London Council for many years between 1967 and 1986 and was Mayor of the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. Nick Gumbel was an avowed atheist until his conversion while studying at Trinity College in Cambridge. He read through the New Testament and said that he had found what he had been looking for all his life. After graduating in law in 1976 (born in 1955) he followed in his father’s career and practiced law. Meanwhile he became a regular worshipper at Holy Trinity Brompton Church at Knightsbridge. In 1982 he announced his decision to leave the bar to train for ordination in the Church of England. In 1983 he began his theological studies at Wycliffe Hall in Oxford. After some difficulty in finding a curacy, Nick joined the staff of his ‘home’ church of Holy Trinity Brompton in London as a curate in 1986. He was ordained priest in 1987. He was officially installed as vicar of the church in 2005. He was awarded an honourary doctorate by the University of Gloucestershire as recognition of his contribution to the wider church via the Alpha Course.

  • “There's Nothing Like a Well-Written, Thoroughly Researched Biography Of
    “There’s nothing like a well-written, thoroughly researched biography of a godly saint to stir one’s heart, stretch faith, and expand kingdom vision. This fascinating and gripping book makes the life of John Newton come alive for the contemporary reader. There’s no hedging on Newton’s depravity, nor his utterly passionate devotion to his precious Savior. I highly recommend this excellent work—it’s one that will transform not only minds but hearts!” —Joni Eareckson Tada, JAF International Disability Center; renowned author “Skilled and colorful biographer that he is, my friend Jonathan Aitken has brought to life one of eighteenth-century England’s most influential Christians. This is the riveting story of John Newton’s transformed life through Christ. It is the story of amazing grace both in the life of Newton and in the song that has become the Christian national anthem. This is a powerful read about one of the most powerful figures in Christian history.” —Chuck Colson, founder, Prison Fellowship “Men and women used by God to change the course of history have rarely escaped the label of unconventional, eccentric, or born out of their time. Such is the story of John Newton, infamous for his total transformation from slave trading to slave emancipator. But even more amazing than Newton’s life with all its drama and color is the reminder of how completely revolutionary is God’s agenda to change the world his own way and through imperfect, broken people. Newton is just another entry to Godís long resumé of his amazing grace in changed lives.” —James MacDonald, Senior Pastor, Harvest Bible Chapel, Rolling Meadows, Illinois “A new life of John Newton is a fitting celebration of the bicentennial both of Newton’s death and of the abolition of the slave trade, Wilberforce’s triumph in which Newton played a key role.

  • Review Article:The Alpha & Christianity Explored Courses
    Review Article:The Alpha & Christianity Explored Courses Robin Weekes n 24th May 2001 at All Soul's Church, Langham Place, a new evangelistic course called Christianity Explored was launched. Adapting and expanding an Oearlier course run at All Soul's called Christianity Explained, Rico Tice has largely devised the new ten-week course. No doubt some within the evangelical world wondered why a new course was needed. After all, wasn't the Alpha course originating from that other leading London church, Holy Trinity Brompton, clearly the most effective evangelistic COl)rse in the country? In the promotion literature, Christianity Explored acknowledges its indebtedness to Alpha praising its 'excellent relational methodology'. However at the same time it makes clear that there are two clear distinctives, which make Christianity Explored quite different from Alpha. The first is the fact that it seeks to teach Mark's gospel. The second is that it seeks to teach the wonder of God's grace against the background of our sin and God's judgment. Thus to many minds, Christianity Explored is designed to be a viable and more Biblical alternative to Alpha, despite the promotion literature insisting that 'the two courses compliment each other'. In this article we seek to examine both courses in the light of Scripture. After Paul and Silas had preached in the Jewish Synagogue we are told that the Bereans ' ... examined the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true' and they are commended for this practice (Acts 17: 11). If the Bereans examined even the apostle's teaching, how much more should we examine contemporary teaching? Anyone involved with Christian ministry in this country, and indeed throughout the world, cannot ignore the massive impact that Alpha is having, and no doubt will continue to have in the future.
