A Texas pastor has resumed preaching at the megachurch he once led, nearly a year after being released from prison. The return of the pastor, who previously served as a spiritual adviser to Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama, comes following a conviction for involvement in a multimillion-dollar fraud scheme.

Last Sunday, the congregation at Windsor Village Church, part of the United Methodist Church, welcomed back Kirbyjon Caldwell, KTRK reported.

Caldwell had served part of a six-year sentence in Beaumont for defrauding investors out of nearly $3.6 million in a scheme involving historical Chinese bonds. He was granted early release last year and returned to the pulpit nearly 12 months later.
