Abstract

This thesis investigated the effectiveness of social cognitive theory to guide interventional engagement with the rule of life model. The project's research purpose was to increase congruence of professed intention and behavioral engagement in reported practice of self-chosen spiritual disciplines by ministry leaders within New Zealand evangelical churches. The researcher's biblical, theological, historical, and applied developmental theory investigations significantly shaped the twelve-week seminar's design and delivery. Seminar related data, assessment and measurement gathered through pre- and posttesting and structured post-seminar interviewing were triangulated. In its reporting significant findings, effectiveness, and implications are summarized under the categorizations of statistically, quantitatively, and qualitatively significant results.
