Hillsong Church has denied whistleblower accusations it intentionally deceived the Australian charities regulator about its financial records, in a defence filed to the Federal Court.
The megachurch is being sued in a Fair Work case by Natalie Moses, who alleges she was unfairly suspended from her role in the finance department after she complained about financial misconduct and questionable expenditures inside Hillsong.
Ms Moses's 25-page statement of claim filed in August alleged dubious financial record-keeping, the misappropriation of church finances, and accusations Hillsong leaders used tax-free money for "large cash gifts" to Hillsong founder Brian Houston and his family.
