After experiencing a radical spiritual encounter at the age of seventeen, Alan DiDio was born again; instantly transforming him from a dogmatic atheist to a passionate follower of Jesus. Taught in a Word-Based Church, he learned early on how to stand in faith. Not long after giving his life to Christ, Bishop Alan went to Bible College and continued serving with an international ministry for twelve years, working on staff for nearly seven. In that time, he gained experience in every possible area of ministry from running an international prayer center to traveling across the country spreading the Gospel.
Since then, he’s founded Encounter Ministries and launched The Encounter Charlotte in his home state, North Carolina. Through Encounter Ministries he has taken the Gospel to nations such as Pakistan, China, Israel, Haiti, and Guatemala. Bishop Alan is a best-selling author of multiple books and host of the Encounter Underground Podcast and Encounter Today on YouTube. His media ministry alone reaches millions of people around the world with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
In 2022 Bishop Alan was ordained a Bishop and Overseer in City Harvest Network.
Bishop Alan and his wife have two children and consider family to be the most important ministry any believer is called to.
