Episode 8: Are Your Hips Balanced

LITTLE ROCK, AR (October 1, 2022) — Tameka Riley announced today her debut documentary, Chasing God. Disheartened by the way Christians are portrayed in mainstream media, Tameka Riley aims to change that.

Riley Media, in conjunction with NdigoTV (Kofi Adzop) are producing the film. Their hope is that it will be the first of many and will make an eternal impact in the lives of everyone who sees it.

For more information on any of the projects in the works at Riley Media and NdigoTV, you can visit their websites respectively.
