Our Story
Rowdy and Ashli Van Horn have been in full-time ministry for 29 years. Together, they traveled the world as Revivalists for 11 years, ministering across America, and through Europe, Southeast Asia, and Kenya. Then God called them to pioneer a new kind of church in Scottsdale, Arizona, USA. A church filled with Jesus, joy, and victory--where the Holy Spirit is free to move, heal, and transform hearts and lives. Pastor Rowdy carries a great anointing as a world-class speaker, worshiper, and genuine servant leader, and Ashli brings her gifts of administration, prayer, training, and communion with God to build One Church Scottsdale--a Spirit-filled, Bible believing church.
One Church Scottsdale is not a process, club, performance or habit. It is place of unity with God and each other. It has also become a destination church for many people across the country who travel a great distance once or twice a year to be in the services to experience the move of God, revival in their spirit, and to worship along with the unique, powerful style of praise and worship. Life is filled with many challenges, and church is supposed to be a connected family: a place of genuine relationships, strength and growth. Along with their 3 children, Pastors Rowdy and Ashli invite you to experience this place of Jesus, joy and victory!

A Team Approach that
Creates a Culture of Honor
As a result of an intimate relationship with God, we treat everyone with honor, all the time. Within the leadership, this means having hard conversations and taking personal responsibility to grow continously. Within the church, having a culture of honor means not just pretending things are okay and looking the other way when they're not, but actually loving enough to be genuine and give and receive strength. Life is hard, and you're not meant to do it alone. God created you to be in real relationships with Him and with others in the Church. We invite you to a new environment, where we try to be more like Christ each day, we own that we are still growing, and everyone is recognized as powerful and valuable.

What We Believe
What does One Church Scottsdale believe about the scriptures?
We believe the Bible is the inspired, infallible Word of God, and that men were moved by the Spirit to write words of Scripture. We believe it is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.
What does One Church Scottsdale believe about God?
We believe in one God who exists in three distinct persons (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit). We believe that Jesus Christ is the second member of the Trinity (the Son of God) who became flesh to reveal God to man and to become the Savior of the lost world, and that He sent God’s Holy Spirit to us to comfort us, to be our advocate, to fill us with spiritual gifts, to cultivate the fruit of the Spirit within us, and to lead us into a greater knowledge of God.
What does One Church Scottsdale believe about mankind?
We believe that man was created in the image of God to have fellowship with Him, but became alienated from that relationship through sinful disobedience. As a result, man is totally incapable of coming back into a right relationship with God by his own effort.
What does One Church Scottsdale believe about salvation?
We believe that the shed blood of Jesus Christ on the cross provides the sole basis for the forgiveness of sins. Therefore, salvation only occurs when a person places his faith in the death and resurrection of Christ as the sufficient payment for his sin. Jesus said, “I am the Way, the Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father but by Me.” He said, “You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
What does One Church Scottsdale believe about the Christian life?
We believe that every Christian should live for God and not for him or herself. By obedience to the Word and daily yielding to the Spirit, every believer will mature and become conformed to the image of Christ.
What does One Church Scottsdale believe about the church?
We believe that the church is the body of Christ of which Jesus Christ is the Head. The members are those who have trusted by faith the finished work of Christ. The purpose of the church is to glorify God by loving Him and by making Him known to a lost world.
Core Values
Biblical Authority
We Believe God has spoken to us through the Scriptures. Therefore, the Bible is our ultimate authority.
Intimacy with God
We believe God desires an intimate relationship with every believer. Through prayer, meditation, worship, and Bible study, we can pursue and achieve a real and intimate relationship with God.
Relevant Environments
We believe our role is to create environments that are conducive to the work of the Holy Spirit in the hearts of people. A relevant environment combined with competent leadership will allow us to connect with our audience.
Relational Evangelism
We believe that all believers have the responsibility of carrying out the great commission in their sphere of influence. We pursue this through our “Invest & Invite” strategy.
Real Community
We believe accountability, care, and a sense of belonging are critical to balance and progress in our spiritual journey. These three things are best achieved within the context of a small group of like-minded, relationally-connected believers.
Strategic Service
As gifted members of the body of Christ, each believer is responsible for exercising his or her gifts in tandem with other members of the body. It is not enough to exercise spiritual gifts. Maximum impact is contingent upon a coordinated, strategic exercise of gifts in the body.
Intentional Apprenticing
We believe that every believer is responsible for passing along to others the knowledge, skills, and opportunities for service that God, through others entrusted to them.
May they all be as one, Father, as You are in Me and I am in You.
May they belong to Us. Then the world will believe that You sent Me.
I gave them the honor You gave Me that they may be one as We are One.
I am in them and You are in Me so they may be one and be made perfect.
Then the world may know that You sent Me and that You love them as You love Me.
