At the heart of the gospel is both evangelism and discipleship. Alpha courses are designed to do both effectively. We have used the program in our local church with good success. I am glad to commend it.

The Alpha Course has now become one of the most reliable and important means of drawing people into the church. It has enormous potential.

Alister McGrath

President of the Oxford Centre for Christian Apologetics, UK

The Alpha course is a most engaging way of passing on the basics of Christianity. It is a tool for evangelism and nurture that I highly recommend.

J.I. Packer

Professor of Theology, Regent College, Vancouver, Canada

I highly recommend the Alpha course to everyone interested in discovering how the Christian faith can be exciting and life-changing in the modern world. The course is biblically sound, understandable, and practical. It will have a significant impact on people's lives and it will strengthen every church in which it is held.

Wayne Grudem

Professor of Biblical and Systematic Theology, Trinity International University, Illinois, UK

The Alpha course is intelligent, biblically based, and incredibly interesting. I am convinced that when historians look back on the last few years of church history in the twentieth century they will have to acknowledge that the Alpha course became a significant instrument in bringing thoughtful people to a faith in Christ and into the church. For the inquiring mind, there is nothing better around than the Alpha course.

Tony Campolo

Professor of Sociology Eastern College, Pennsylvania, USA

The phenomenal growth of Alpha courses is showing the church that we do not have to be on the defensive about our faith, but can expect people to be interested, and then radically changed by the gospel.

Elaine Storkey

The Institute for Contemporary Christianity, UK

I believe that Alpha may well be God's instrument for Salvation for many in this generation, just as Billy Graham was for so many in the previous one.
