    I appreciate everything this guy done. I took Alpha course and became Christian later. I found it is the best decision I ever made. Thank you Nicky.

    Came across this clip by accident (though Oogway says "there are no acvidents"!) and just wanted to say great testimony Nicky, but even better to have heard yours Johnny & especially on prime TV. About time a popular secular media had the guts to air something positive about Christianity! Praise God and may it be for His glory.

      How do you have a relationship with God?
      He doesn't say or do anything, if you ask him the square root of 43, he won't tell you.
      One might say he gives you the strength to get through a difficult situation, but surely it's just your own brain giving you that confidence, a bit like the placebo effect in some way.

    I felt a strong pull to get closer with Jesus at the end of last year, so I reached out to my church and they suggested Alpha. The Alpha course was just perfect for me, it really answered so many questions and helped me feel like the Gospel is not off limits to me, and I am worthy to be included in the Christian discussions. I felt like I was welcome into the family of God. Before that I felt like I wasn't allowed in somehow, like I was an outsider to the church and I didn't know to get in. Alpha really helped me in that sense! I went in there just curious and wanted to explore Jesus, but I didn't expect what an enormous transformation Alpha would bring about in my life. The truth of the Gospel shared through the Alpha course really touched my heart permanently and now I identify as Christian, having recognized Jesus as my Lord and Saviour. I will be baptized as soon as the pandemic lockdowns allow churches to offer it again (living in Ontario, Canada). I just wanted to say thank you to everyone on the Alpha team for making the Gospel so relatable, so understandable, so easy for people like me who feel like outsiders to get in and be part of the body of Christ. Hallelujah and may God Bless you!

      I took the Alpha course in Toronto. It only strengthened my atheist position. I don't believe any of the crazy Christian claims. Claims for miracles and the supernatural. Too unbelievable and exactly what I'd expect from superstitious iron age mentalities. God is a human construct. It's just people inventing superman as a panacea for everything they don't know.

    I was an atheist until I had a personal encounter with Jesus. Although it was a life affirming moment for me it raised as many questions as it answered, some of which I'm still struggling with today. What was he doing in my back garden in the first place? Why was he wearing a hoodie? Why did he steal my bike?

    Heard about this interview, but by tonight it was out of date on BBC I-player - so checked the Alpha website and found the link to this clip. Agree with what was said as I too met Jesus (unexpectedly!) on 4th September 1994. The rest, as they say, is history.

      Where did you "meet" Jesus? What did he/it look like? Did he speak to you? If so, what did he say? What did his voice sound like? You actually met them or was it more like a feeling? If you could explain and be extremely specific if may help the rest of us.

Then the person leading the service said he thought God had spoken to some one. Yes, it was me. The rest is history. So for me it was 'Word and Spirit'.

    God bless Nicky Gumbel for his wonderful sharing of the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. God bless Johnny Vegas for his faith in the Lord. The Alpha course is a wonderful thing to be part of. For instance, many people come as skeptics, once they take in the beautiful message being presented they are change people. Just like Mr Gumble I once was an atheist change by my saviour Jesus. Praise the Lord!!!!

Our church was having a baptism week and my bro wanted to get baptised (because of what jesus had showed him on a church camp) i thaught about it then the same night i had a dream were jesus showed me a number of things like a better way to live but there was also a pool in the dream so i asked my gran what she thaught it meant she said it could be linked to baptism so i got baptised afterword it was amazing i felt like a compleatly changed boy.

      kevmem2000 I guess the difference between taking an arrow in the knee and finding Jesus is that one cripples you and limits your possibilities, whereas finding Jesus sets you free, brings true joy and peace to your life, and allows you to begin seeing miraculous healing and deliverances on a regular basis. In fact, the person who truly finds Jesus can most likely heal the person who took an arrow in the knee. So there's that...
