Beginning with the Pastor and a core group of disciples, personal discipleship to Christ spawns Vision.

Vision spawns groups of disciples and conflict within congregational systems in areas that are not discipleship-oriented.

Conflict leads to maturity or destruction.

Discipleship flows from discipler to disciples, from leader to leaders to led, who then become leaders.

Transformation begins in small groups, flows to worship, flows to leadership, flows to congregation, flows to finances, flows to growth.

At least in my experience.
