The American Council exists to strengthen the Church and form principled leaders for a complex cultural moment. We equip Christians with biblical clarity, practical resources, and a renewed confidence to live faithfully in public life without compromising conviction or conscience.
We believe the Church thrives when believers are grounded in truth, engaged with wisdom, and guided by love of neighbor.

Our Founder
I am a pastor, children’s author, and political scientist based in Rocklin, California. I earned my Bachelor's in Political Science from UC Davis, completed a Master's of Executive Leadership, and I am currently a doctoral candidate in Strategic Leadership. My work sits at the intersection of faith, leadership, and culture, helping people think clearly, lead courageously, and live anchored to truth in a complicated world.
The Huffington Post once described me this way: “DiBella has a neatly cropped beard and a confident, soothing voice that would not seem out of place at a D.C. lobbying firm.” I take that as a compliment, although I promise I only use my lobbyist voice for sermons and the occasional conversation with customer service.
Truth matters. We believe Scripture provides a clear foundation for faith, family, and public life.
Strong Families
Families are the primary place where faith is formed. We exist to help parents lead their homes with confidence.
The Local Church
The Church is called to speak with clarity and courage. We help believers and leaders stand for truth with faithfulness and grace.
Loving Our Neighbors
We reject rage. We believe Christians are called to speak truth with conviction while loving people with humility and grace.
Thank you for being a shining light in all the darkness. Thank you for being a voice of truth in a culture that does nothing but spew lies. We live in a time and day when we don't know what to believe or what's true. But one thing is for sure, we can trust the American Council.
