Reaching For Real Life with Sean Azzaro

Big News! River City Community Church is planting a new church in San Marcos, Texas and leading the way is Ryan Azzaro (Worship Pastor, Teaching Pastor, former Youth Pastor, former Facilities Weed-eater). Ryan also happens to be Pastor Sean Azzaro's son as Ryan shares about God's perfect timing when at an earlier age he thought pastoring was for "chumps." Lessons learned inside here - now watch what happens next when you know you're called.

After Sean breaks the big news of new church plant from River City, Pastor Stuart Perryman of Agape Christian Church joins the conversation. Pastor Stuart had the vision to unite SA Pastors in this election season to keep our eyes on Jesus, to preach Jesus and Him crucified...it's about the Gospel. Sean goes over a document created for city pastors and leaders with 10 important points in this vision for Unity. You can find it and more on the Facebook page: The Christian Leadership of San Antonio.

How about some good ol' (free) marriage counseling from both Sean and Lauri Azzaro as this time we hear things from Lauri's perspective when it comes to all the hot topics:
(3:00) - Communication - Conflict Resolution
(10:17) - Money
(15:13) - Spiritual Life in Marriage
(21:25) - Honoring Your Spouse and Your Parents
(23:31) - Best Advice
A lot of love and a lot of laughs in this one!

So Sonny Melendrez was the guy who encouraged Pastor Sean to record A Pilgrims Guide To The Spirit Filled Life for Audible (due out soon)...and oh yeah, Sonny is a special guy himself. (Twice named Billboard Magazine's Radio Personality of the Year, Texas Radio Hall of Fame, and in the Rock and Rock Hall of Fame in the Top 100 Radio Personalities of All Time exhibit) Sean and Sonny share the importance of gratitude, joy, and enthusiasm in your daily life.

This is a fun one! Sean is in mandatory evacuation mode fleeing Galveston, Texas as Hurricane Laura approaches...cutting short the celebration of 33 years of wedded bliss with Lauri. Hear Sean reflect on those years with practical advice on servant leadership, spiritual leadership in the home, and even shares the secret to unity in your marriage.

Sean Azzaro talks with the nationally syndicated radio host, and author Todd Starnes about his 2019 book called Culture Jihad. Sean calls the book practically prophetic in it's descriptions of civil unrest, destruction of history, art, and literature, and the deliberate attacks on religious liberty. Todd Starnes also shares his faith and the hope we still have if good Christians do what three Hebrews did back in Daniel's day.

After reminiscing on 33 years of leading in ministry, Pastor Sean says it's time to celebrate some good news! Good news in the church with people meeting again in corporate worship, good news with the State of Texas as COVID cases are coming down, our hospitals are not overrun, and of course the Good News that comes from our Savior. This is a fun one...enjoy!

Attention Parents! A podcast just for you, especially when you may be spending more time with your kids in this season. Sean reminds you of the awesome job you have shaping the future...through your children. A landscaper asked him "when is the perfect time to plant a tree?" - The answer is not "in the fall." It's "20 years ago". Some great advice in here on taking care of your young sprouts. Enjoy!

Pastor Sean recently shared a powerful video that has been viewed over 47 million times. It's Pastor Alex Bryant (a Black Man) with his wife Angela (a White Woman) who says "I have no words but I will not be silent" - as they silently share a message using words on pages he holds up as each of their five children join them. The final call is to Let's Start Again. Another great session of dialog and a day closer to unity through the love of Jesus.

Sean confesses as a young man in ministry he was frustrated by the idea of "being Holy" on his own compared to Jesus because...well...he was Jesus...but Peter summed it up with “...do not be conformed to the passions of your former ignorance, but as he who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct since it is written, ‘You shall be holy, for I am holy’.” This conversation will encourage you to listen for His voice, and to live the Spirit-filled life.
