Pastor Adrian Ortiz is a second-career pastor. When God called him into the ministry he and his wife (Adrienne) closed the books on their construction business and dove into Bible school. Pastor Adrian received his Bachelor's Degree in Biblical Studies through Moody Bible Institute and has taught within the local church setting for the past 12 years.
Hello!
My name is Adrian Ortiz, and it has been my joy and privilege to teach God's Word in the local church setting, building up the saints, and inviting ALL PEOPLE into the glorious life of repentance and belief in the Lord Jesus Christ.
Ephesians 2:10 tells us that "we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works... that we should walk in them". Furthermore, we are told that we are "the household of God built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus as the cornerstone" (Eph. 2:20).
God is doing something truly amazing right now. How great is it to be actively involved in His redeeming a people to live with Him in Heaven, forever?
If you would like to be part of a Christ-centered community, or just want to see what the Jesus-thing is all about, you couldn't find a better group of Christ followers than what you'll find here at First Baptist Church of Martinez.
See you soon, God bless!
