The purpose of this ethnographic study was to assess the effectiveness of using a collaborative shared-vision process (as described by Peter Senge) in leading a core group of dedicated Christians recruited from several diverse United Methodist congregations in south Johnson county, Kansas in planting a new local church. This study found that a collaborative shared-vision process was effective in preparing a core group to start a new congregation. Members of the core group did experience many of the benefits suggested by the theory such as an intense sense of ownership in the local church, a long-term orientation, a feeling of community, synergy, and a sense of accomplishment.
