Disciple Nations Alliance

Religious InstitutionsUnited States2-10 Employees

The Disciple Nations Alliance (DNA) is a global network that exists to help the Church rise to her full potential as God’s principal agent in the restoration, healing and blessing of broken nations. We accomplish this purpose by equipping God’s people to be the hands and feet of Jesus in their families, in their communities, and through their vocations.

We are not a traditional organization with staff across the globe but, rather, a movement of social and cultural transformation spread through ideas based in Scripture. As God uses DNA teaching materials to renew minds and hearts, giving believers a vision for impacting their local communities, local, self-governing DNA networks often spring up--some organizing into formal NGOs or ministries. Such networks presently exist in more than 45 nations, and many are seeing lives transformed and whole communities emerging from poverty in sustainable ways. 

The DNA began in 1997 as a joint initiative of Food for the Hungry and the Harvest Foundation to envision and equip local churches worldwide to fulfill their strategic, God-given roles in the transformation of communities and nations.

The DNA began by promoting a “school of thought” centered on the power of Biblical truth for cultural transformation, the strategic role of the church in society, and the importance of wholistic, incarnational ministry.

This school of thought initially was spread through five-day Vision Conferences which featured the teaching of DNA co-founders Darrow Miller and Bob Moffitt. The first Vision Conference was held in Lima, Peru in 1997. Since then, hundreds of Vision Conferences have occurred in more than 80 nations throughout Africa, Asia, Europe, Oceania and the Americas.    

In January 2008, the DNA Global Secretariat office was formed as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization in Phoenix, Arizona. It provides administrative and communication service as well as training and project support to the global alliance.
