SIGN UP TO OUR MAILING LIST

 

“The cost of church based discipleship is of key significance for anyone who wants to make themselves useful for the kingdom of God; both inside or outside the church. DNA is a fantastic tool and resource for individuals and churches to use to see them made more whole and useful. Churches within and outside of Pioneer have used it this way and would commend it, and I commend it to you.”

Gerald Coates

founder of Pioneer

Welcome to DNA

DNA is unique! We will provide you with a life-altering "hot house" year through which you will be radically discipled in the context of church for a life of service to Jesus and being an agent for His kingdom.

Personal message from Pete Gilbert, Team Leader (9 June 2009)


 
DNA is passionate about ...
  • being your year in with God, not a year out. DNA runs October-August
  • being risky, radical and life changing
  • serving 18 year olds upwards, with no upper age limit (we've trained people in their 60s!)
  • faith in action; what you'll learn is what you'll do
  • equipping you for church based leadership
  • developing you for the workplace
  • your development in character, skills and understanding
  • dependence on the person and power of the Holy Spirit in and through you
  • providing an accredited programme through the National Open College Network
  • relational, non religious Christianity; it's fun!
 
It works!
 
  • serving churches
  • developing leaders
  • making 21st century disciples
