Sam & Toni have been Christians for over 25 years. They have three boys – Louis, Nick, and Anthony.
Over the first 20 years of their Christian walk and marriage they lived “the America Dream” of fame and fortune but at an awful price.
Sam built a career as one of the Founders in the Customer Relationship Management (CRM) Market. He held several senior level positions the final one as an Executive Vice President and General Manager running a business unit of over 400 employees at PeopleSoft Corp. During that period of time he became a well known key note speaker and luminary in his field, speaking frequently on business radio and TV. While he was at the height of business success, he was at the depth of personal failure. Traveling for 20 years took its toll on Sam and Toni. Their marriage hit the wall when Sam confessed a personal addiction to Pornography and a Moral Failure. He made a promise to God one night that if God would rescue him and save his marriage, He would serve Him the rest of his life. Since then, the Lord has fully restored their relationship, beyond all they could have asked or imagined. He delivered Sam from all addictions and brought hope and love back into Toni’s heart. As a result, Sam and Toni have started a ministry to rescue marriages. God has called them to go out and share the great things Christ has done in Sam's heart and in their marriage. Through sharing their testimony, God has enabled them to rescue men and woman and husbands and wives on the verge of separation.
Currently: Sam is the Senior Pastor of The Harbor Community Church, a church serving the needs of the communities in Oxnard and Ventura. Sam and Toni have been running a CBS Community Bible Study in their area for the past 6 years, Sam as Teaching Director and Toni as the Coordinator. Over 130 men, woman and children come together from over 27 denominations to study God's word. Additionally, Sam started the ministry “True North." Using their testimony, Sam and his team perform rescue missions for men addicted to the Strongholds of sexual sin, with a focus on Pornography. Toni runs the love and hope healing ministry to the woman that have been wounded in the after math. Sam was on Staff at Calvary Community Church for 2.5 years as Team Coach of Worship and Events and is currently a licensed minister. Sam’s Tent Making is as a CRM consulting practice.
