The Alpha Series by John Glenn

On a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being sinful and worthless and 10 being absolutely perfect and righteous, how do you rate yourself, really?  On that same scale, how does God rate you?  The Alpha Series is a systematic study of all that God has done to make you a 10 and a course on how you can begin to see yourself the way God sees you. Knowing what God thinks about us gives us a choice in what we are going to believe about ourselves.  Believing what God says he made us to be allows us the hope we need to cope with life.  The joyful, confident expectation about our own future gives us the liberty to care about others.  The Alpha Series  may be used as a counseling model, a discipleship course, a faith based recovery tool, and a training curriculum.  Along with the companion workbook it is suitable as basic curricula for all types of study groups and recovery programs.

The Alpha Series Workbook by John Glenn and Jim Groth

What is the Alpha Series? Is it a program? Is it a religion?  The simplest answer is that the Alpha Series explains the gospel of Jesus Christ in a way that ordinary people can understand and apply it to themselves. What makes the Alpha Series effective as a counseling model, discipleship course, training curriculum, or recovery tool is the fact that it is a practical application of the gospel which is "the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth..." (Romans 1: 16).

People are hungry for the gospel of grace but turned off by religion. Because the Alpha Series is not religious but biblical in nature most people will be receptive to the teaching regardless of their background and life experience. Religion is man's attempt to manipulate deity by what he says or does. Biblical Christianity is a personal relationship with God based on believing in what He has done for us in Christ that we could not do for ourselves. The Alpha Series is simply an explanation of what the Bible says that God has done to make us worthy as persons. Whenever the gospel is taught it is the power of God that changes the lives of all who believe it. more info

The Mystery of Faith by Jim Groth   more info

Faith gets a lot of publicity. Everyone in Christian circles is thinking and talking about faith. For many, it is a mystery. There is a vast difference between what one group says and means about faith and another. These differences exist regardless of denomination affiliation.

The mystery centers around the very nature of faith itself. What exactly is faith? How does one get it? What power does faith have? Does it have any power? What are the degrees of faith? How much do I need? One thing is for sure, everyone agrees you have to have it.
