embezzlement

A new survey has found that one in ten Protestant churches has dealt with embezzled church donations.

Jay Sekulow, the chief legal counsel for the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ), recently came under scrutiny for allegedly using donations to a nonprofit he also runs for personal interests.

The president of a Christian charity has reportedly pleaded guilty to embezzling $475,000 from charity donations to fund his sex addiction.

New Gospel Outreach Church is now involved with another scandal; this time, the pastor of three years has gone to jail for rape and sodomy charges.
