Fundamental Commitments of Transformation

There are three fundamental commitments of Transformational Leadership:

1. Personal Transformation – Transformed Christ-like leaders are committed to Personal Transformation, a state of being transformed.

2. Relational Transformation – Transformed Christ-like leaders practice personal transformation and builds relational connections for transformation.

3. Community Transformation - Transformed followers of Christ want nothing more than to see their spheres of influence embrace a relationship with the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.


Personal Transformation: The leader has a clear vision of and vision path to his/her true self and is making significant, measurable progress toward achievement of that vision

Path (Personal Revival)

Community Transformation – A critical mass of transformed Christ-like followers in a geographically or socially defined community have a clear, shared vision and vision path and are making significant, measurable progress toward the achievement of transforming their community of influence. (Transforming Revival - The Body of Christ will experience an invitation from God to participate with Him to redeem a lost world around them through transforming revival.)

• Fervent, united, self-less intercession: “If My people who are called by My Name would humble themselves and pray, seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven, forgive their sins and heal their land” II Chronicles 7:14
• Emergence of preserving leadership: Defined leadership that requires enormous personal maturity and assurance in who God called them to be and to do.
• Social impact: The transformation of social influences at every level
• Understanding of community’s needs (diagnostic research): A review and an assessment of community values and spiritual mapping of a given region or identified social sector.
• Power encounters at the community level: An experience of coming face to face with God and His Word that confronts past behavior, uprooting all negative influences. As such, many will discover God’s plan for personal, relational and community/domain transformation.
• Saturation church planting: Facilitation of a church planting movement through relational networks
• A rapid reproduction of “disciples making disciples” in oikos relationships: Within a short period of time, God transformed lives will in turn have the capacity to transform others. This is done through relational reproducible networks.
