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. The research is descriptive in that a quantitative empirical research type of inquiry have been conducted.

A preliminary literature review supports the hypothesis and reflects that theory on the topic of mentorship is essential to leadership development  in  Pentecostal-Charismatic Churches.
