This grounded theory study uses interviews from ten leaders in six churches with varying degrees of success in implementing disciple-making strategies to determine what are the critical factors. These factors include: spiritual preparation, leadership buy-in, the on-going communication of vision and philosophy, a healthy launch, congregational buy-in and successfully passing on the philosophical DNA of making disciples. The on-going communication of vision and philosophy was determined to be the most critical factor in this change process. This study also relates these factors to John Kotter's eight-stage process of change from his book Leading change (1996). While this study acknowledges the difficulty of changing hearts and values through organizational efforts, careful attention to the six critical factors of this study during the change process will greatly ease natural resistance to change.
