We believe that asking life’s big questions is important—and we’d love to help you explore them. Whether you’re new to church, curious about Jesus, or returning to faith, our explore courses are relaxed and welcoming spaces to consider what Christianity is all about. We offer different courses (Alpha & Simply Christianity) throughout the year to help you explore who Jesus is through different formats.
In all our courses, you won’t be asked to pray, sing or read aloud, and you can ask any questions you like. Or, if you prefer, you can just come along and listen. It’s an opportunity to hear from others and contribute your own perspective in an honest, friendly and open environment.
Explore: Alpha
A relaxed, conversational 6 week series for anyone curious about Christianity. Each topical session includes a short video and open discussion—no question is too big or too small. It’s ideal if you’re just beginning to explore faith or coming with no church background.
You can express interest in the course or ask any questions in the form below.
The next alpha course begins 4 May 2025, Sundays 9-10:15 am at Scots Church.
Explore: Simply Christianity
Simply Christianity is a 5 week course that goes through one of the first-century biographies accounts of Jesus. By reading Luke’s gospel, participants are able to make up their own mind about who Jesus is.
