Shiloh Founders Committee
About
The Founders Committee is the stewarding body responsible for the genesis and long-term integrity of Shiloh and The Commonwealth.
This committee exists to ensure that the civilizational foundations—governance, economics, land stewardship, and mission fidelity—are established correctly at the beginning, when decisions carry permanent consequence.
Members of the Founders Committee serve as stewards of first principles, overseeing:
The sequencing and execution of Shiloh’s phased development
Capital discipline and responsible deployment of resources
Governance architecture and legal integrity
Economic systems designed for long-term stability, not speculation
Protection of mission, culture, and covenant across generations
The Committee operates with institutional rigor and discretion, guiding the project through its Genesis and Dawn phases—when errors are most costly and clarity is most required.
Membership is by invitation only, extended to individuals whose judgment, experience, and integrity equip them to help author the initial conditions of a regenerative, Christ-centered civilization.
Founders do not merely support a project.They stand at the beginning of a legacy.
