Ep 127 : BRINGING YOUR FULL SELF TO THE TABLE - Lisa Pak - Exponential Australia Church Leaders Podcast
<p>In this episode of the Exponential Australia Church Leaders Podcast, Charlie is joined by keynote speaker Lisa Pak, a Toronto born Korean Canadian leader serving with Finishing the Task alongside Pastor Rick Warren. Lisa shares how growing up between cultures shaped her conviction that the global church needs leaders who can bring their full selves to the table, across generations, cultures, and calling. Lisa delivers a clear challenge for leaders in a digitised world: discipleship cannot be fast tracked. You cannot microwave formation, and you cannot call convenience discipleship. She unpacks why deep disciple making requires time, self awareness, and real relational investment, and why leaders must resist the illusion of engagement created by bite sized spiritual content. The conversation then turns toward the internal gauges of the Multiplier life. Lisa calls pastors and planters back to two repeatable practices that protect long term fruitfulness: prayer that brings insight and peace, and Sabbath rhythms that keep leaders humble, human, and anchored in the Holy Spirit rather than performance. She also offers a hopeful and prophetic encouragement for Australia as a multicultural Commonwealth nation uniquely positioned for global mission and collaboration.</p>

Ep 126: WHAT YOU HOLD WILL NEVER MULTIPLY: JOEL CHELLIAH ON LAUNCHING CHURCH EXPRESSIONS AND HEALTHY LEADERSHIP - Exponential Australia Church Leaders Podcast
<p>In this episode of the Exponential Australia Church Leaders Podcast, Charlie sits down with Pastor Joel Chelliah, National President of the Australian Christian Churches, for a wide ranging and deeply pastoral conversation as we build toward the National Gathering on the Gold Coast. Joel reflects on the shift from state leadership into a national role, and the intentional boundaries he and Sharon have had to put in place to protect rest, marriage, and family while stewarding a growing apostolic assignment. </p><p><br></p><p>Joel’s keynote focus for this year is launching church expressions, and he names two major barriers that repeatedly hold churches back: the lack of a discipleship leadership pipeline, and fear of the cost involved in sending and planting. He reframes planting as gaining by losing, sharing how years of costly sowing have produced lasting fruit across communities, and offers a striking picture of release: what you hold will never multiply, but what you place in God’s hands always can. </p><p><br></p><p>The conversation then moves into the heart of healthy leadership. Joel speaks candidly about the difference between genuine Kingdom ambition and ego driven striving, shares the moment God redefined success for him as a healthy home that loves Jesus, and offers practical pastoral counsel for leaders carrying stress, burnout, or unrealistic expectations. He closes with a prayer for renewed faith across the Australian church, that leaders would leave Exponential believing again that God is doing a fresh work and that it is time to do something courageous for Him. </p>

Ep 125: CREATING ROOM AT THE TABLE: KATHERINE CHOW ON FINDING HIDDEN LEADERS AND BUILDING A MULTIPLICATION MINDSET - Exponential Australia Church Leaders Podcast
<p>In this episode of the Exponential Australia Church Leaders Podcast, Charlie is joined by Katherine Chow, Associate Vicar at Holy Trinity Brompton in London, to kick off our keynote speaker series leading into the August National Gathering. Katherine shares her journey from growing up in a Chinese church where everyone served, to practising law in New York City, and how God gradually called her into church leadership through the intentional investment of others. </p><p><br></p><p>Katherine unpacks three simple but demanding ingredients of leader development: proximity, intentionality, and continual investment. She then brings a sharp leadership lens to one of the most common questions across the Western church: where are the leaders. Her answer is both sobering and hopeful. Many faithful leaders are serving quietly in hidden places, and many others carry latent leadership that needs to be called out beyond existing structures and biases. </p><p><br></p><p>The conversation also explores what it looks like to build diverse teams and create psychological safety, why identifying leaders requires listening for whose voice is missing, and the costly but beautiful decision by senior leaders to create room at the table for others. Katherine closes by pointing toward the deeper question beneath all leadership development: am I a disciple worth replicating, and how might the Holy Spirit empower the church for the season ahead.</p>
