 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. Christianity Explored has been around for over a decade now, and it's been designed to suit different age ranges and people. More details are below, but if you're interested, why not add your name to the waiting list, and we'll arrange a course at a time that suits when enough people have signed up!

Q. Who is Christianity Explored for? A. Christianity Explored is for anyone who wants to investigate Christianity informally with a group of other people. Whether you have previous experience of Church, Christians and the Bible, or none at all, this course is for you. Everyone is welcome - from the most sympathetic Sunday schooler to the convinced atheist. We will respect your background, culture and beliefs. Tell us as little or as much about yourself as you feel comfortable. Q. What goes on? A. The course is normally run in small groups (maybe six to nine people), and after briefly discussing the course material from the week before, there is a talk or DVD on the theme for that week. Then the groups discuss any questions that have arisen. Q. How long does the course last? A. The latest course runs for 6 or 7 weeks. Q. Can I pull out if I want to? A. Of course you can. Q. How much does the course cost? A. Nothing. Q. Do I have to bring anything? A. No, all course materials are provided. Q. Is it 'churchy'? A. We hope not. It's not a church service. There's no praying, singing, or clapping, and you won't be asked to read aloud. Q. Am I going to get preached at? A. Each evening includes a talk (or DVD) designed to explain an aspect of Christian belief and to stimulate discussion. Hopefully you'll find it challenging and amusing. The group leaders will facilitate discussion and try to answer questions. Q. Do I have to speak in the group? A. Not if you don't want to. You are welcome to come and just sit and listen. Q. How is Christianity Explored different from other courses? A. The focus on Mark's Gospel, with its emphasis on who Jesus was, what his aims were, and what it means to follow him, makes Christianity Explored quite different. Q. Why is the course run? A. Christians count it a real privilege to explain the truth and relevance of the Christian message. We don't have all the answers but believe that we have exciting news to share about Jesus Christ. Q. Why not add your name to the waiting list?
