Lunch.Deep.Talk.

Big questions. Open conversations. New perspectives.

What gives my life meaning?
Does God really exist?
Where is God when people suffer?
Who is Jesus – and what does he have to do with me?
What does forgiveness mean?
And what happens after death?

Lunch.Deep.Talk. is an Alpha course for students: Sieben Treffen, um gemeinsam über Gott, Glauben und die großen Fragen des Lebens ins Gespräch zu kommen.

Wir laden dich ein zum gemeinsamen Lunch und kommen dabei ganz unkompliziert miteinander ins Gespräch.
Then there’s a short talk followed by plenty of time to share, discuss and discover new perspectives.
You don’t have to believe anything or know anything.
Ask anything, be critical, listen, discuss or simply be curious.

Open to students of all denominations and to anyone wondering if there is more to life. Come along.
Have lunch. Ask questions. Keep thinking.

Wann & Wo? Start: Donnerstag, 5. November 2026 um 12.30 Uhr
