UPDATE at bottom...

Video has been removed at request of the station... you can still watch it HERE.

A male prostitute says that he sold sex to the president of the National Association of Evangelicals for 3 years:

A gay man and admitted male escort claims he has had an ongoing sexual relationship with a well-known Evangelical pastor from Colorado Springs.

Mike Jones told '9 Wants to Know' Investigative Reporter Paula Woodward he has had a "sexual business" relationship with Pastor Ted Haggard for the past three years.

Haggard is the founder and senior leader of the New Life Church in Colorado Springs. The church has 14,000 members.

Haggard was named one of America's 25 most influential evangelicals by Time Magazine. He directs the 30-million member National Association of Evangelicals, the largest evangelical association in America.

Haggard denies the allegations and speculates that these revelations have something to do with his support of an anti-gay marriage ballot iniative in Colorado.
