Alan Platt is an agent of transformation in the lives of individuals, local churches and corporate structures of society. He has been in full-time ministry since 1983, serving the church on various levels. Under his leadership as the Visionary Leader of Doxa Deo, a strong city-reaching strategy has been established.

In Tshwane (Pretoria, South Africa) there are approximately 10 000 people attending nine different campuses (local churches functioning as one corporate local church in the city). Doxa Deo has established five educational institutions that serve to educate the young generation in Christ-centred training. A social upliftment centre focusing on skills training and development ensures job creation and effective outreach to the community. Doxa Deo manages seven orphanages in different cities. This ministry has also established campuses in five other cities in South Africa, as well as two internationally, in London (UK) and Auckland (NZ).

Through Alan’s primary gifting in leadership and teaching, he has not only established a dynamic team in Doxa Deo, but has also influenced a wide spectrum of organisations, denominations and church networks in South Africa – as well as internationally. His influence extends beyond church to the influencing of the business sector, education and society at large.

Alan’s capacity to communicate with small groups as well as large crowds makes him a sough-after speaker across the globe. Alan is married to Leana and they have two children, Duncan and Amy.
