Reaching For Real Life

San Antonio traditionally hosts the largest Martin Luther King March in the Country, but it's been cancelled for the 2nd year in a row due to COVID concerns by the city and organizers. Pastor Sean is concerned the true message of MKL is getting lost, and shares the top two ways to overcome racism.

Pastor Mark McLemore with River City Community Church has a passion for marriages...even serves with the San Antonio Marriage Initiative. Sean grabs him for a special conversation about this wonderful institute God created. If you need new tools in your marriage toolbox …listen and then get to work!

Have a healthy and prosperous New Year, as Pastor Sean briefly speaks to the healthy part with a good news COVID update, and then takes on making goals which isn't how everyone is wired. But staying wired/connected to God is the instruction from James. Resolve to listen all the way through...good gold nuggets of truth.

Pastor Sean gives his take on the year, and the historical time we're in right now. Will it be a "Winter of Severe Illness and Death"? Can one Senator kill the "Build Back Better" package? And then we slide into Christmas - what opportunities are their to love this season?

National Debt - Inflation - Taxes...Hey my paycheck didn't get any bigger! Pastor Sean has a subtle reminder for you... "My job is not my Provider....it's my Provision." Hope inside...enjoy! Press in to Christmas! Don't rush...God bless!

"...Okay, God, now you're just showing off." - Have things ever happened in your life or career where you're in the middle of something that wasn't in your vision plan or mission statement but because of something from out of nowhere, you're in it? Real Life Ministries and River City Community Church is all stocked up on that kind of crazy. A lot of encouragement for you to lean not unto you own understanding...

Performed before a live studio audience, we get in the Christmas spirit by talking about music and movies, which leads to the release of The Chosen - and while excellent in its production comes a warning to remember the Book is so much better. #bottomlineisJesus.

On the eve of Thanksgiving, Sean shares what a gamechanger thankfulness is. And even when the news of the day, the month, the year is not good, or sometimes not even true, remember where your Focus is.

Sean shares some leadership lessons from his professional polo playing days that's helped him "reign" people in or "let them run". Also be inspired with a special ministry opportunity as it's Compassion Month!

Probably the funniest and most woke podcast in the history of podcasts as Pastor Sean chats with Joel Berry, Managing Editor of The Babylon Bee and their book - The Babylon Bee Guide To Being Woke.

As Veterans Day nears, Sean shares what he's learned about leadership, how to foster it, and how to find it in others. (after a cool conversation about Willie Nelson of course.)

Sean starts off with his perspective on the opportunity that Halloween is - and that Satan "doesn't get a day"...ever. And then meet Pastor Aaron Powers who was one of the early church plants of River City Community Church, and hear the lessons learned, and the faithfulness of God.

Pastor Sean welcomes to the show the man known as America's Fire Chief (appointed by President Obama), Chief Kelvin J. Cochran who went through his own fiery furnace when he was fired for his Christian beliefs on a very public stage. But just like the 3 Hebrews in Nebuchadnezzar's day, somebody else was with him. His new book "Facing the Fire: The Faith That Brought America's Fire Chief Through The Flames of Persecution" tells the full story of his persecution, and how to take the heat...and the lessons learned from it. Stand for the truth and watch what God does.

With whole industries shook with layoffs and closures because of vaccine mandates, some are standing up saying I will risk losing my job as I will not be forced to get jabbed. Sean makes the case for Vaccine Hesitancy with the bottom line always being to PRAY.

Dr. Bruce Gilley is the author of The Last Imperialist - Sir Alan Burns' Epic Defense of the British Empire and is Sean's special guest on the day of its release with Regnery.com. While it's a biography of Dr. Burns, this book was banned and personal attacks came to Dr. Gilley...since British Imperialism was "evil and racist" even tho' the countries under their umbrella thrived.

Huge Week at River City with Sean teaching Ephesians, Zach Williams playing live at the Real Life Amp on Sunday, we have sports smack on the Bears and Spurs, and the connection between Bob Dylan and Sean's Father. Oh yeah, and Sean addresses the topic of grace when we do or say something dumb. #Forgive #moveon

The conversation started with a misquoted scripture where people say "Money is the root of all evil" - and then Sean went off! Are Christians supposed to be poor? Are Christians supposed to be rich? Money and Marriage - how should that work? #contentment

This is Part 2 of a fun and practical message on Family and Discipleship featuring a panel of experts - Lauri Azzaro, Mark McLemore, Jaime McGuire, and Montie Mansur - led by Pastor Sean Azzaro. But before that Texas has made national news including some corners of the country to call for a boycott of Texas for laws past in the last Legislature. Sean will talk about the good and bad of these new laws including Open Carry, The Heartbeat Bill, and The (Voting) Integrity Bill.

"Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it." - Parents, Biblically we have a job to do. And its the same job Abraham had with his "many sons". Enjoy the conversation first with Sean and Baron as they talk music and some vision with the Real Life Amphitheatre, but Sean has a message that will encourage you and your family.

Jamie McGuire is a secret weapon for the Kingdom. She serves on staff at River City Community Church as the Next Gen Pastor, but she also serves as a Lt. Col. in the United States Reserves. Pastor Sean says give me some one from the military and loves Jesus ready to serve and watch out! Life lessons inside this conversation in leadership, including raising your kids.
