RUN ALPHA

We make running Alpha as easy as possible.

MyAlpha helps you discover resources and craft a plan for your specific context. Best of all… It’s free!

GET STARTED

 

Everything you need to run Alpha – all the episodes, promotional materials, and training – are all available to you digitally and are 100% FREE! Please register each Alpha you run as it ensures you receive the latest, most current resources and it ensures we’re providing accurate numbers to our donors who make offering Alpha for free possible.

 

Creating your Alpha is easy. Just click on the Create an Alpha button below to get started.

 

Determine what audience you’re trying to reach and decide which series you would like to use. Alpha has been filmed in several different formats so you can find the one that works for you.

 

Once you have created your Alpha and selected your start date, your weekly sessions will be automatically scheduled for you. You can then invite your team members and download all your free materials—including videos, guest guides, and all promotional materials.

Alpha can also be run in a completely online format.

ALPHA FILM SERIES
15 sessions – 11 weeks

 

Repackaged for today’s audience, the Alpha Film Series is emotive, engaging and epic in scale and scope. Nicky Gumbel and two new presenters, Toby Flint and Gemma Hunt, walk through the basics of the Christian faith in a way that everyone can relate to. The episodes feature inspiring stories and interviews from all around the world, as well as visual illustrations and motion graphics.

ALPHA - YOUTH FILM SERIES
13 sessions – 10 weeks

 

Alpha Youth Series is designed to engage students in conversations about life, faith and Jesus. Discussion time is interspersed throughout the short talks to make it simpler for them to share their thoughts and questions. The Alpha Youth Series Refresh is an updated version of the AYS, including more relevant stories, student interviews, and visuals that better represent our current cultural moment and resonate with this generation of students and young leaders.

ALPHA - Nicky Gumbel
16 sessions – 11 weeks

 

Alpha pioneer, Nicky Gumbel, delivers a complete set of Alpha talks filmed live at HTB, London where Alpha began and presents each topic with humorous anecdotes, personal experiences and Biblical relevancy. These videos provide the timeless version of Alpha talks for tens of thousands of churches of all denominations around the world.

CHINESE ALPHA FILM SERIES
15 sessions – 11 weeks

 

The Chinese Alpha Film Series is Alpha’s first fully contextualized version of the Alpha Film Series. Filmed entirely in Mandarin, the series allows a Mandarin speaking audience to explore life, faith, and meaning through their heart language and through content that is culturally relevant to them. The series is filmed in seven locations around the world. Rev. Andrew Chai is joined by two young hosts and other renowned leaders to unpack the basics of the Christian faith in an updated and engaging way.​
