After a radical encounter with God at the age of seventeen, Alan DiDio was born again; instantly transformed from a dogmatic atheist into a passionate follower of Jesus Christ. Grounded in a Word-based church, he learned early how to stand in faith, pursue truth, and submit his life fully to the authority of Scripture. Not long after his conversion, he attended Bible college and went on to serve with an international ministry for twelve years, spending nearly seven years on staff. During that time, he gained experience across every area of ministry, from overseeing an international prayer center to traveling nationally and internationally preaching the Gospel.

In 2004, Bishop Alan founded Encounter Ministries with a mandate to awaken believers, equip the Church, and proclaim the Gospel with clarity and power. Through this ministry, he has taken the message of Jesus Christ to nations including Pakistan, China, Israel, Haiti, and Guatemala, while also reaching millions worldwide through teaching and media.

In 2023, in response to a prophetic revelation and a growing urgency to contend for revival in America, Bishop Alan launched The Encounter Charlotte. This local church was established with the conviction that Charlotte, North Carolina would serve as a strategic foothold for revival; one that would move from the East Coast and sweep the nation. The Encounter Charlotte laid the foundation for a vibrant church family rooted in Scripture, the power of the Holy Spirit, and a commitment to faithful discipleship.

As the calling expanded, the church stepped into a new season as Revival Nation Church. This transition reflects not a change in doctrine, leadership, or people, but a broader assignment. Revival Nation Church remains the same church family under the same leadership and biblical foundation; now stewarding a national and generational mandate to equip believers, strengthen the body of Christ, and serve both local gatherings and a growing national audience through teaching, media, and ministry resources.

In alignment with this expansion, Bishop Alan’s online ministry, formerly Encounter Today, now operates under the Revival Nation banner, continuing its mission to deliver biblically grounded teaching, prophetic insight, and timely encouragement to believers around the world.

Bishop Alan is a best-selling author of multiple books and hosts teaching and media platforms that reach millions globally. In 2022, he was ordained as a Bishop and Overseer in City Harvest Network.

He and his wife have two children and firmly believe that family is the first and most important ministry any believer is entrusted with.
