The second session on Alpha about the history of the Bible through the ages, strengthened me that God is real. Because before, I often doubted His existence. Does God exist? Is it true that God incarnates into a human and atones for the sins of mankind?

Alpha changed my life. During the Holy Spirit session, I was released from the feeling of revenge and wanting to kill the person who hurt me. I experienced God’s forgiveness and love. When I meet the person I used to want to kill, I pray in my heart and say “I forgive you in the name of Jesus”.

Before, I had a deep bitterness towards my Mother. But after following the sessions at Alpha, I found inner peace. I let go of that bitterness, became more mature and realized that harboring bitterness would eliminate my spiritual growth and relationships with my beloved family.

Alpha is not just preaching but about reaching around. I run Alpha with school friends. Usually it starts from playing games, regularly riding bicycles together, and playing together. I don’t have to wait to be a pastor to bring people around me to know who God is.

At first I thought Alpha was an ordinary evangelistic tool. Each of us is trained to be able to memorize many verses and must have a high spiritual level. But, it turns out that Alpha is very easy to run and very simple.

Alpha is life. Because Alpha teaches us how a life has meaning.

For the power of prayer is extraordinary. And now I know where to turn to, unto Lord Jesus.
