It has been suggested that this article be merged into First Baptist Church of Hammond. (Discuss)

Preying from the Pulpit was a mini-news series produced in May 1993 by WJBK of Detroit, Michigan for the 10:00 PM news.

The newsteam followed up on allegations of child molestation." The news report "began airing a six-part series Sunday night that stemmed from child sexual abuse allegations last fall against deacon Mark Foeller and associate pastor Timothy Leonard of North Sharon Baptist Church near Ann Arbor." The San Diego Union-Tribune noted "the news report found seven U.S. churches - all with ties to Jack Hyles, it said - involved in sex scandals."

The Chicago Sun-Times wrote that the "TV station said alleged child molestations at a suburban church there appeared to be part of a pattern among 'churches that follow the teachings and philosophy' of Hyles, First Baptist and its related Hyles-Anderson College of Crown Point, Ind." The Chicago Sun-Times article suggested that the report, in part, examined a "Christian fundamentalist organization accused Hyles of misdeeds and bad theology," which included "a deacon at First Baptist, A.V. Ballenger, was found guilty of one count of child molestation dating from 1991."

The Chicago Tribune writes that the report includes the allegations of the parents of a seven year old girl that was molested by AV Ballenger that Hyles told them that "Ballenger 'just liked little girls,' and, 'you don't have a case.'" The parents made these allegations when filing a million dollar civil lawsuit against Hyles.
