<p> The context for this qualitative case study evaluation was a 400 member United Methodist Church in southwest Michigan. Incongruence existed between the congregants' claimed spiritual development and minimal supernatural manifestations. Significant instruction has not resulted in change. The purpose of this project was to develop, implement, and evaluate a leadership training.
