A great way to get a feel for Alpha is to watch the first talk given by Alpha pioneer, Nicky Gumbel entitled, Is There More to Life. Start a Conversation. Invite a Generation. alphausa.org/invitation | #tryalpha
My mom played piano for Alpha worship in MN for about 10 years so this video makes me very nostalgic. He's such a good speaker and his accent somehow makes me feel smarter.
2.55 Jerusalem trope. The whole Alpha edifice is built from here- Blake: “And did those feet in ancient time, walk upon England’s mountains green?” Gumbel: “We all knew the answer is, “No, They Did Not.” In one fell swoop Gumbel here murders poetic sensibility. “So he sent the word to slay, And slew the little childer” (From the beginning of CS Lewis’ The Abolition of Man)
God bless you nicky gumbel

It was a joke.
I notice that none of the videos get very far without proposing that church is boring and this is a solution to the tedious task of worshiping God
