These are just two of the big topics we hit on today’s “Rodriguez, president of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference, is on a mission to reach the masses with biblical truth. His quest has stretched from the the pulpit to Hollywood, with the preacher producing hit films like “Flamin’ Hot” and “Breakthrough.”

But Rodriguez said he soon received a call from Paramount about screening the film “Noah” to see how it might appeal to the Christian community.
