John and Diane Worcester
John is married to his best friend and invaluable teammate Diane. They have raised two sets of twin sons that are all heavily involved in college ministry or church planting. The Worcester’s have planted and pastored eight churches in a variety of settings. They also created a training non-profit organization called Church Planting Leadership that has trained over 5000 church planters from over 30 countries, and 42 denominations. While on Saddleback staff, John created a Purpose Driven Church Planting curriculum that helps church planters contextualize and practically apply Biblical principles. Dr. Worcester has also pioneered a comprehensive church planting strategy called the ACTS Strategy that Assesses, Coaches, Trains, and Supports church planters.
Currently John and Diane are based in San Diego. John is coaching and training church planting leaders. He is also writing Accelerating Conversion Growth, a book that examines the principles learned from decades of planting conversion growth churches and equipping leaders.
