The study design is a three-dimensional descriptive research and explores first-ly, the need for mentoring young church leaders, secondly, to emphasize the im-portance of a biblical model of leadership mentoring, and thirdly, to assess the impact of negative ‘Pentecostalisation’ within Pentecostal-Charismatic Churches in the West Rand District Municipality, a geographical area that forms part of the Gauteng Province in South Africa.
