Episode Summary:
In this episode of God Is Not a Theory, Ken Fish sits down with Jeffrey Fazl, who shares the remarkable journey of being called out of retirement at age 66 to plant a new church in Queensland, Australia. What began as resistance to ministry transformed into a Spirit-led call to create a kingdom community—rooted in healing, presence, and personal connection.
Jeffrey shares the process behind this obedience, including the geographic and spiritual contrasts between Victoria and Queensland, the unique faith atmosphere in the northern region, and the challenges and rewards of building from scratch. His vision for the younger generation is clear: equip, empower, and walk alongside them—not above them.
With vivid prophetic encounters, personal vulnerability, and generational wisdom, Jeffrey paints a roadmap for what it looks like to say “yes” to God’s call—regardless of age, location, or cost.
Key Discussion Points:
1. Obedience to a Late-Life CallingJeffrey Fazl shares how God called him out of retirement at 66 to plant a new church, defying expectations and personal reluctance.
2. Building a Kingdom-Centered CommunityInstead of focusing on structure, Fazl emphasizes creating space for Jesus through worship, presence, and healing relationships.
3. Spiritual Climate and Cultural ShiftThe move from Victoria to Queensland brought not only warmer weather but a more spiritually open atmosphere, changing the dynamic of ministry.
4. Mentoring and Empowering the Next GenerationFazl outlines his passion for equipping young people through love, trust, and prophetic insight—without controlling them.
5. A Vision for Lasting Impact Through LeadershipThe episode explores how elders can become spiritual heroes by modeling authenticity, guiding youth, and preparing them to carry the mission forward.
