There is a difference between a Church and a religious organization or what is loosely coined a Faith Based Organization.  What constitutes a religious organization is absurdly broad.

This provides a decent overview.  #7 and #10(especially) are worth a read.

Thanks for the links.

If in the USA, follow up question, should the federal government be funding it?

In American jurisprudence, the faith requirement would only be legal if the job itself directly involves the expression of faith. If the duties of the job itself don't require faith for their performance, the requirement is illegal even if the organization is religious.

Example: A Baptist church can require their couples counselor to be a Baptist, because their counseling would be through the lens of their Biblical understanding. That same church cannot legally require their groundskeeper to be a believer.

I'm not a lawyer, but this is my understanding of the law.
