If so, then you are hungry for the Spirit-filled life!
The Bible paints a vivid picture of the life-changing, eternity-shaping, world-altering impact of God’s Spirit living and moving in the life of the believer. In A Pilgrim’s Guide to the Spirit-Filled Life, Sean Azzaro explores and illuminates the Spirit-filled life as presented in the Scriptures.

HERE’S WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING:
“Sean Azzaro’s “A Pilgrim’s Guide to The Spirit-Filled Life” is aptly named. Sean reminds pilgrims that we are to be walking in the Spirit and challenges us to not settle for a stale or empty faith. He explains why and how the church today has muted its discussion and teaching of the Spirit-filled life. What makes this book rise above the rest is its freshness and relevancy to everyday living. Though there is a depth of study here that teaches and challenges, it’s the warmth and devotional approach to the writing that will make this a book perfect for personal and group study for any denomination. We need this book in an age of self-dependency and fulfillment. We need to renew our awareness of what it means to be filled by the Spirit. And, as you read this book, you will quickly see why River City Community Church in San Antonio is a growing and fruitful church because of the Spirit-led faithfulness and shepherding skills of Sean Azzaro.”
