Whoever we are, as Christians, we each have a ‘frontline’. Your frontline is the place where you spend much of your time, where you meet people who don’t know Jesus. It’s the place God has called you, the place of possibility and potential. We may be old or young, healthy or infirm, employed or not – we still have a ‘frontline’. A place God has put us. Often though, we don’t see our frontlines in this light. But just imagine what the impact might be on our neighbourhoods, workplaces, schools – on the whole nation – if we could help each other make a difference for Christ in these places. Imagine how God could work through you, right where you are. Imagine what would happen if every Christian looked around at the people they spend their days with and asked God: how do you want me to be good news to the people here today?

The Alpha Course is a series of weekly evening sessions exploring the Christian faith, typically run over ten weeks. Each talk looks at a different question around faith and is designed to create conversation. The Alpha Course is presented by way of the Alpha Film Series DVDs. They explore the big issues around faith and unpack the basics of Christianity. They address questions including “Who is Jesus?”, “How can we have faith?” and “How does God guide us?” Probably the most important part of any Alpha Course: the opportunity to share thoughts and ideas on the specific evening’s topic… to simply enjoy discussion in a small group setting. Want to join us? Come along for the Introductory Supper at New Life Church to see if you would like to explore more through our next Alpha course. 

Through this course you’ll learn how to create a Biblical financial plan for your life, so you can become financially free. Financial Hope is specifically designed to emphasize God’s Word in the area of our personal finances and to empower people to improve their financial and spiritual lives. Financial freedom opens up the possibility of living free from the pressure of changes in our volatile economy. Financial hope can become a reality for us all. This course is run by facilitators with years of experience in the financial field and it is both entertaining, practical and applicable to those who want to grow in knowledge of the God-way of doing things.

DivorceCare and DC4K (DivorceCare for Kids) is opening in person again at New Life Church. This is a safe place where caring people come alongside you and support you as you find healing from the pain of separation or divorce. At this 13-week, video-based support group program, you’ll find helpful counsel and empathetic facilitators (who themselves have gone through the pain of divorce) to help you manage the emotional turmoil of divorce/separation. There are break-aways to smaller groups after the videos, where sensitive discussions will be guided by our DC facilitators, and where you can share as much or as little as you are able.
