A Christian Faith Exploration Course
What to do before Alpha.
Video-based experiential sessions that kick-start a faith journey in the not bothered, not searching and 'not religious.'
Purchase one course per group. It contains all the video links, discussion questions and supporting materials you will need to run the course.
How the Stir Course Works
Each session can run from 20-60 minutes and uses experiences, video clips and reflection to stir up the many spiritual emotions, questions and longings that lie dormant, under the surface of most people's lives.
The leader learns to call attention to these longings and interprets them as springing from the soul.
As participants uncover their true spiritual nature it provides the motivation to explore faith further.

Discover Your Soul
Stir Pack 1
Stir Pack One consists of six experiences that help participants discover the presence of their soul by bubbling up emotions, questions and longings that reveal our true spiritual nature. These include our sense of justice, wondering if we have a purpose and our longing to know we are not alone.
Connect to God
Stir Pack 2
Stir Pack Two introduces several people from the past and present who demonstrate how their connection with God leads to full life. Participants will develop a desire to connect with God, who fulfils our every longing.
Encounter Jesus
Stir Pack 3
Stir Pack Three introduces Jesus, who was fully one with God. By diving directly into the gospel accounts, participants will be drawn to the person of Jesus and his relationship with God. They will see that wherever Jesus went, true life followed.
Live Full Life
Stir Pack 4
Stir Pack Four addresses the reality of our sin, our separation from God, Jesus’ sacrificial death and resurrection and our inability to re-establish the connection with God on our own. Participants will be invited to follow Jesus as their Leader and Forgiver.

“I found the Stir Pack extremely useful material which goes right back to the basics of spirituality and which assumes no knowledge of faith or Christianity. “

"I love the way that a relationship with Jesus is presented as something to experience and not just learn about.”

"It’s great for the youth leader who doesn’t have a lot of time, but still wants to run a youth group, because it does a lot of the planning for you."
