Background
In response to complaints from former unpaid call center workers, Trinity Foundation began investigating Mr. Taylor by recording television broadcasts, monitoring social media, and speaking with victims. We submitted 2 investigative reports about David E Taylor to the IRS Exempt Organization Division. Our first report was delivered in 2018 when we recommended Taylor’s organizations lose their tax exempt status and again in 2019 in a report titled “Recommendation to File Criminal Charges Against David E. Taylor and Revoke the Tax-Exempt Status of 3 Organizations: Joshua Media Ministries Inc. (JMMI), Kingdom of God Global Church, & Kingdom Family Church)”.
Check out Taylor’s 2017 form 990. You will notice that he reports that he worked 65 hours weekly and received zero compensation from the ministry and zero from related organizations. Knowing his lavish lifestyle, Trinity Foundation finds that impossible to believe.
