Shules Hersh: Shules Hersh entered itinerant ministry at the same time as he and his young bride of four months moved from familiar Austin, TX to the bustling world of Los Angeles in January 2008. There, they staked everything on a dream to connect faith-driven entrepreneurs with a network of likeminded backers and consultants passionate about leveraging their skill sets and relationships to "be a positive influence on a global level." The company they helped to found, an internet based B2B networking platform, (and a crowdfunding pioneer), launched them into the thrilling world of Kingdom–minded business. Even during the height of the economic downturn, when funding eventually ran out, “the call” continued. Eight years, thousands of miles, three children, two successful business launches and one associate pastorate later, this risky beginning has developed Shules Hersh’s ministry into a recognized anointing of apostolic and pastoral influence with church and business leaders alike—from coast to coast and across the pond. Shules is uniquely equipped by both his experience and the call on his life, to relate to and speak the language of both the church house and the marketplace. He and his partner-in-all-endeavors Brooke, and their three beautiful children are moving back to Los Angeles to plant a church in 2017. And so the circle is complete it seems. People often ask Shules whether he feels called to ministry or business. He says: “If I understood the question, then I probably could give it a great answer.”
