After surviving a life-altering experience at just 18 — being shot at point-blank range in the head — Dr. T. Horn Jr. knew his life had a divine purpose. Today, the Pomona, California native, entrepreneur, and spiritual leader is channeling that purpose into Kingdom Builders, an inspiring platform that combines weekly virtual messages with a line of motivational apparel to build communities of Ambassadors for Christ.
A former troubled youth, Dr. Horn turned his life around with education, entrepreneurship, and unwavering faith. After graduating from California State University, San Bernardino with a degree in Criminal Justice, he spent over 25 years serving as a Deputy Probation Officer for Los Angeles County, using his personal story to uplift and guide young people toward positive change.
But Dr. Horn’s passion for inspiring others didn’t stop there. He went on to earn a Master of Divinity and Doctorate in Ministry from Next Dimension Bible College, all while launching successful businesses like Strickly’s Barbecue, Strickly’s Auto Accessories, and 1st Class Realty. Through it all, his message remained clear — faith, purpose, and entrepreneurship can transform lives.
With Kingdom Builders, Dr. Horn combines his roles as a pastor, entrepreneur, and motivational speaker into one global movement. Each week, he delivers virtual messages that encourage self-awareness, faith-driven living, and empowerment, helping believers embrace their God-given purpose.
In addition to his weekly talks, Kingdom Builders offers a line of inspirational apparel that allows wearers to share their faith proudly. Popular designs include bold statements like “Standing on Kingdom Business,” “Work for God and Watch God Work,” “51/50 Crazy for Christ,” and “Faith Over Fear.”
“This movement is about more than clothes — it’s about building a community of Ambassadors for Christ who are unashamed to live boldly for God,” says Dr. Horn. “The virtual messages and apparel are reminders that we’re called to stand in faith every day.”
Horn’s journey — chronicled in his book You Are What You’ve Been Looking For — serves as a testament to the power of faith, perseverance, and purpose. With Kingdom Builders, he continues to inspire believers to invest in themselves, break generational strongholds, and live fully for God.
