This document discusses spiritual transformation and leadership in churches. It addresses factors that influence church growth such as mission, relationships, spirituality, and organization. The document also differentiates between technical changes that maintain existing systems and adaptive changes that require new learning and stakeholder involvement. Adaptive changes are necessary for a church to grow but will face opposition. Effective church leadership requires getting an overall perspective, assessing readiness for change, empowering others, and keeping the church's mission at the center.
