Leadership
We seek to be fully submitted to the commands and wisdom of Christ. We want our church to be ordered the way God intended for churches to be ordered.
We believe the elders of the local church are called to humbly lead the church and are responsible to help God’s people spiritually flourish.

Kenny Ortiz is originally from Philadelphia, PA. He’s been a pastor, college professor, and entrepreneur.
Before coming to Florida, he was a pastor at Cities Church in St. Paul and a professor at Bethlehem College & Seminary in Minneapolis. He blogs and podcasts at Theology for the Rest of Us.
Kenny is married to Malaina, they have two young kids (and a third on the way). Malaina is originally from Houston. She was previously a missionary to France and then worked as a college recruiter for several years for two different schools in Minnesota.
With the hope of raising up and establishing Elders, we’ve created an Eldership development process. These men are currently in that process.


We believe that local churches should be led by a plurality of biblically qualified male Elders/Pastors, with the Lead Pastor serving as the “first among equals.”
However, since Horizon City Church is a new congregation, we have not yet had the opportunity to establish additional Elders. Until a plurality of Elders can be established, this Advisory Team will offer counsel and accountability.
