Hollywood...the show-business capital of the world and notorious for its glitz, glam, and being the driving force behind the entertainment industry. But movies and would be stars are not the only things cultivated in Tinseltown. On this edition of The Truth Booth we invited award winning producer Rod Mitchell to share his experience in technology, film, and entertainment and how it impacted him to become the truth seeker that he is today.

Out of all the things on the planet, one of the most fascinating subjects is gang culture. From film and music, to fashion, business and more, gang culture has influenced innumerable sectors of our society. But is it as attractive as media portrays it to be? Is power, prestige and notoriety at the heart of many human beings, or are they after something else. On this edition of the The Truth Booth, we welcome guest Tony Ramirez, formerly known as Big Shanks. A person who lived and walked in the street life, championed the code of his set, and witnessed first hand the effects of those choices.   ***Listener Discretion Is Advised***

Ancient Israel continues unveiling much about the past, while simultaneously beckoning humanity to examine how the future is to be navigated. But does the archeological evidence give credence to eternal wisdom, and compel witnesses to take heed, or is humanity simply moving so fast, that it is missing what has been under its feet all along?  

In an era championing for equal rights, and acceptance, many groups are advocating for unity, while the church largely remains at odds with one another. Why is this the case? Ancient wisdom tells us the answer is as plain as day as provides us the clues for not simply unity, but discovering who we are.

Comb most websites, music and video and you will rarely see content of a sexual nature silenced. More often than not it is celebrated and even leveraged as bait, to lure consumers in for a variety of products and services. However when the topic of sex trafficking is brought to the forefront, it's given minimal media coverage and few people speak up. Why is this? Is it perhaps because the ugliness that is contained within this "Pandora's Box" is getting closer to being opened and some fear what that will reveal? It appears we are getting closer to seeing the fulfillment that "...nothing hidden that will not be revealed, and nothing concealed that will not be brought to light".

It's arguably one of the most sought after questions in life; "Who Am I?". Could it be that the answer eludes us simply because we are looking in the wrong place? The answer is closer to us than we realize, which means we've been sold a bill of goods and it's time to reclaim our true identity in God.

We are living in turbulent and questionable times. There is no doubt that a dramatic shift is already under way and many are scrambling to make clarity of it all. How does one make sense of a world in chaos? Information is moving across the planet faster than ever, technology is blurring the lines of reality and although seemingly connected, we have never been more disconnected as a human race. But, despite the mass confusion and endless opinions there is hope for tomorrow.
