Trinity Foundation (Dallas)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Trinity Foundation is a self-proclaimed watchdog ministry headed by Ole Anthony and based in Dallas, Texas.
Trinity has primarily investigated televangelists such as Robert Tilton, W.V. Grant, and Benny Hinn. Much of its information is purported to come from disgruntled former employees, moles working for ministries who secretly (and under constant threat of termination and lawsuit) provide information to Trinity, and dumpster diving for information. (Under American law, items placed in the trash are considered to be abandoned and thus can be legally obtained by anyone.)
Regarding Hinn, Trinity claims to have evidence showing that Hinn's ministry does not qualify as a church under Internal Revenue Service guidelines, as reported by The Dallas Morning News in July 2005. Specifically, Trinity claims that Hinn's ministry does not hold regular public worship services at its facility, as access is strictly limited to employees with access badges.
The group is not without controversy. A former member, Wendy J. Duncan, has written a book, I Can't Hear God Anymore: Life in a Dallas Cult claiming that Trinity Foundation is a cult.
