The Alpha Youth Series is an interactive 9-week series designed to help engage young people in conversations about faith, life, and God. The series features stories from all around the globe, from a wide variety of different contexts and cultures. Each episode is interactive—with short breaks that make space for discussion in small groups.

It is primarily intended for young people who don’t attend church and don’t have a personal relationship with God but also appeals to those who want to grow in their faith.

Alpha Youth is designed for any young person and can be run anywhere. Whether it’s in a church youth group or in a school classroom, Alpha generally has three key things in common:

Food has a way of bringing people together and building community. So even if it’s a light snack, sweets or a full meal, Alpha starts with food.

Between 20–25 minutes long, each Alpha Youth Series episode unpacks the basics of the Christian faith, addressing questions such as, ‘Who is Jesus?’, ‘How can we have faith?’ and ‘Why and how should I pray?’

Throughout each episode, there are three discussion breaks. These breaks give a chance to share thoughts and ideas on the topic and discuss them in small groups.
