CHURCH MANAGEMENT & TAX CONFERENCE REAL LIFE STORIES You have been a tremendous blessing to The Kingdom. I cannot place a dollar amount on the Wealth of Knowledge our Church has experienced major increase Pastor Wendell Hutchins, Church of Champions! Praise God! This Conference is So Powerful! My Church was desperate to learn what to do to be in compliance. We always wanted to be in compliance but we couldn t find the help we needed until God sent you to us. Pastor Don Meares, Evangel Cathedral WOW! I can see the Favor and Anointing that God has placed on your Life and Ministry to help Pastors, Churches and Church Leaders. Our Church has more unity, and everyone feels safe because we are now in compliance. Minister Tim Dees, Downey Memorial Church The CMTC Conference Is Helping Thousands Of Pastors, Ministers & Evangelists Sleep Better At Night. The IRS Is Allowed To Give You Advice Over The Phone And Even If Their Advice Is Bad...They Are Not Responsible! The CMTC Conference will cover topics that are absolutely necessary and critical to operate your Church or Ministry in a way that benefits the Church. Our job is to protect the Pastor and the Church from the U. S. Government. Now that the IRS is scrutinizing Churches, Pastors and Ministries like never before, this is the time to get your House of Worship in order. In a recent court case, David Michael Maser vs Commissioners, the court ruled, even if the IRS gives you bad advice, it s not binding on the IRS. Can you imagine what happens to your Board and Trustees if you rely on the IRS? Don t ever call the IRS! Call Dr. Michael Chitwood. We ve been doing this for over 80 years. We know what to do. We advise you to be careful who you listen to and make sure you ask them for their credentials. It s Not What You Know That Will Hurt You... It s What You Don t Know! Recently the United States Congress passed laws that now affect Churches & Nonprofits and put a watchful eye on the Churches by the IRS. The way they are doing this is through Obamacare. Obamacare allows IRS agents to examine certain components of your books and records. The code contains over 270 sections that pertain to Churches. All of them are very important. If you break one law you could be penalized big bucks! 4 4 GOD CANNOT BLESS A MESS!

In addition to the time spent in jail, they will be on probation for three years and they still owe the federal government 1.2 million. This case serves as a referendum on a historic and sacred institution the African American Church. It also touched on another sensitive nerve the growing visibility of wealthy pastors.

CHURCH TRUSTEES AND BOARD MEMBERS Love Offering Alert IRS Scandal Rocks Churches Grand Jury Indicts Minister for receiving anniversary and weekly Love Offerings from his Ministry. M. Plemons Church Law Compliance The IRS scandal is beginning to hurt Churches. Members are now requiring full accountability from their Church. M. Plemons Church Law Compliance Ministers Beware Church Treasurer Alert Between January and July, two Church members wore wires to numerous meetings in an effort to tape the Pastor about misuse of funds. Some of the meetings were held alone and some included as many as seven members of the Board Of Trustees. In all the meetings, IRS violations were discussed. John Rast CTL News Recordings of Church meetings yielded evidence useful to the IRS agents about the misuse of Church funds, Pastor abuses, and certain facts pertaining to love offerings. The recordings have been sealed by the IRS awaiting a separate motion filed by the Church s attorney. We will report any further data when available.
