Change is a universal phenomenon and an inevitable human experience which consequences can either be negative or positive. It is the only thing that is per-manent in the journey of life of every individual created by God. The place of change in the leadership of any religious organisation or in any political party as it were cannot be over emphasized. The change is in all human facets, phys-ically, spiritually, economically, politically and even culturally. This paper therefore examines what change in leadership can bring on the governed both in Politics and Religion. It also discusses some challenges and prospects that could emerge as a result of the change agenda. Humans by our nature clamour for change when people feel that the leadership in the church or in society has failed to meet up with their expectations. This is the dynamism inherent in hu-man existence. Personal development is characterized by the values of personal identity influenced by the integrity of the leader in any human institution. The aspect of dynamic balance in the relationship with God is based on the value of God-centeredness in the life of a religious or secular person. This balance also brings dynamic relationship with the community based on the values of sacredness of human life, empowering love, freedom and justice for all. In consequence of this, balanced relationship between a wholesome person and the rest of the creation is based on the values of care for nature, maximization of resources and excellence which every individual and every community strives to attain. These are part of the values; change can bring into the lives of humans either in religion or in politics which on the other hand may not occur, if change is not dynamic.
