Leaders’ Guide + CD-ROM

This comprehensive guide provides course leaders with all the tools required to present the Alpha course to a varied and diverse youth audience.

It contains everything you need to know for each session of the course with sections on ‘strategy’, ‘practical skills’ and ‘planning and preparation’ as well as some tips on different aspects of youth ministry from youth leaders across the world.

It is also split into three streams of running the course depending upon the context:
  • Alpha-Tech using multi-media technology
  • Alpha-Active using interactive teaching material
  • Alpha-Lite a shorter version for use in school groups

ExploRE is the ideal classroom tool. Based on Youth Alpha, it is a 12 week programme providing 11-14 year olds with an overview of the Christian faith.

 

ExploRE is designed to be used by teachers, youth workers and church workers who want to take the message of Jesus into schools. Leaders have the opportunity to outline what they believe, and students the opportunity to explore and discuss their own views as well as listening to those of others. Written by experienced teachers and filled with fun activities, it fits seamlessly into the national guidelines for teaching RE at Key Stage 3.
