St. Matthew's Churches
St. Matthew's Churches, formerly St. Matthew Publishing Inc., is an evangelical Christian ministry. It is primarily a mail-based ministry with an address in Tulsa, Oklahoma, with churches in New York and Houston. In 1999 St. Matthew Publishing Inc. reported $26.8 million in revenue.〔 In 2007, it reportedly earned $6 million a month.〔
==Origins==
The ministry is led by its founder James Eugene "Gene" Ewing, a former tent minister, who, according to the Trinity Foundation, lives in Beverly Hills, California.〔〔Salinger, Lawrence M. ''(Encyclopedia of White-collar & Corporate Crime )''. p. 681.〕 Ewing, a native of Kaufman, Texas, was born in 1933 and has written fundraising letters for other evangelists, including Oral Roberts〔 as well as Don Stewart, WV Grant, and Rex Humbard.
Ewing operates Church by Mail Inc., which had a several decade long struggle with the IRS before being denied tax-exemption in 1992, which was appealed.〔 Ewing was a revivalist in the 1960s with revenue at $2 million.〔 He then began writing fundraising letters for Oral Roberts. By 1971 Ewing renamed organization Church of Compassion as a "mail-order church with half a million 'members'" with income exceeding $3 million.〔 In 1979 he started for-profit advertising and printing "to provide printing and mailing services to nonprofit religious groups."〔 Then in 1980 his business Church by Mail applied for tax-exemption.〔 However, by the 1990s his businesses owed back taxes to state and federal agencies.〔 Nonetheless, in 1993 he bought a $2.2 million, home above Beverly Hills. Subsequently, a year later the U.S. Tax Court ruled Church by Mail Inc. is "operated for private rather than public interests" and "is not a church" within the meaning of federal tax laws.〔
