EntrePastors – Jon Sanders and Les Hughes pt 1

ENTREPASTORS

Jon Sanders and Les Hughes pt 1

If you’ve been listening to this program for any length of time, you know I have a heart for Christian entrepreneurs who are making a difference. A difference in the community and a difference in the Body of Christ.

Many pastors are facing financial issues, especially in this era of trying to return from the COVID lockdowns, etc. Many of these ministers are contemplating actually leaving the ministry in order to find work that will provide for their families and their future as well.

That is one of the main reasons I enjoy sharing information with you from entrepreneurs who have a heart for maintaining Christian morals and values and have that reflected in their business.

Having said that, I believe you are going to truly be blessed by our guests today. Jon Sanders and Les Hughes are the co-founders of “EntrePastors,” which helps pastors to think and thrive as prosperous entrepreneurs. Through their podcasts, a membership community and mastermind groups, EntrePastors provides the tools and community of support to help pastors and minsters – and others with a ministry background, achieve financial freedom and free up their time and to escape the stressful “paycheck to paycheck” life that often accompanies vocational ministry.

Jon and Less have come together to empower pastors to maximize their God-given talents and to take better care of their families and to become better pastors in the process.

Help me welcome to the program, Jon Sanders and Les Hughes!  Gentlemen, it is truly a pleasure to have you join us on the program today!

First question I always start with is this – and you can answer it one at a time, you choose who goes first. But can you tell us, in your own words, “Who is “Jon Sanders” and who is “Les Hughes?”

Jon, you’re from S. Dakota – and Les your’re from Alabama. How did you two get together and decide that “EntrePastors” was something that you two could partner up with?

How serious is this issue of pastors and ministers actually contemplating leaving their calling in order to survive, financially, and take care of their families?

You both have pastoral backgrounds. Was this an issue that either one of you or both of you were facing at one time or another?

Do  you believe the era of “full time pastors” is coming to an end? Are things that bad out there?

If someone has been in the ministry or pastorship for, let’s say 10 or 15 years, do they have the skill sets that can be of some value in the marketplace right now?

Just think of the additional ministry opportunities “if only you had the extra income.” Not only would your family be better off – but you could do those extra ministry things that will bless the Body of Christ in ways that only the Lord knows about right now – but that you’ve always wanted to do. Amen!

About your host

Profile picture for TS Wright

TS Wright

Hello. My name is TS Wright, and I am the voice of the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast and author/TV host of the God Centered Concept.

For the past 33 years I have been involved in Christian ministry. Ranging from ministry, teaching and coaching in both public and private high schools and college, I have worked with students, athletes and adults from all walks of life. I have been involved with a host of Christian organizations included but not limited to CRU, FCA and other outreach & church affiliated ministries. Also being ordained in Christian ministry and being both a biblical and historical scholar I have focused on Discipleship, Biblical truth, prophecy & historical theology. I have also authored 4 books, a journal and a devotional series which are all now in the editing phase.

In 2003 and 2004 the Lord cast a series of visions on my life as to what would become the God Centered Concept.

In 2016, the Lord called me to start writing.

In 2019, He cast another series of visions that has led me to now.

In 2023, I was led to starting Podcasting and through divine intervention found Pastor Bob. I became a frequent guest speaker on the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast and being led by the Lord I have taken ownership of the Podcast.

I welcome all of you who are a part of the Kingdom Cross Roads community as well as everyone who is just joining our community as we continue to work to advance the Gospel and spark a Great Harvest. By expanding our message to the NOW TV Network it is our prayer that we can maintain the same level of quality messages and engaging conversations that you have been accustomed to. We thank you for your commitment to this community and we ask for your support and prayers as we strive to glorify God in all that He calls us to do.
