"Breakthrough" Movie - Executive Producer Sam Rodriguez

We had the honor of interviewing Reverend Dr. Samuel Rodriguez for the show! The executive producer for the newest movie "Breakthrough", he shares how he came to hear about the incredible story of John and Joyce Smith and was told not to "shortchange" the miraculous miracle that occurred! He also speaks encouragement to pastors today and how the role of pastor is vital to a family during a tragic time. 

BREAKTHROUGH is based on the inspirational true story of one mother’s unfaltering love in the face of impossible odds. When Joyce Smith’s adopted son John falls through an icy Missouri lake, all hope seems lost. But as John lies lifeless, Joyce refuses to give up. Her steadfast belief inspires those around her to continue to pray for John’s recovery, even in the face of every case history and scientific prediction.
