The church is 29 years old and I have been here as senior pastor for going on 28 of those years. Every Church is unique in it's own way. One is not better than another, Horizon is just different.

*We are casual in dress (I speak in shorts and a Harley shirt)

*We will preach on every subject and will not shy away from telling the truth of what the bibles teaches on all things.

*We are not 'politically correct' by the worlds definition.

*We speak the truth with boldness and in love.

*My Motto is that "I will do anything short of sin for the kingdom of God." That is why I have a bible study called 'Holy Smoke" at a local cigar bar.

*We are passionate about reaching people with the gospel in creative ways, involving ourselves in the community that we live in.
