Dna: Foundations of the Faith
Systematic theology for the urban context
DNA:The Foundations of the Faith presents each reader with a survey of systematic theology written in the heart language of the urban context.
D.A. Horton writes with a conviction that every believer should have the privilege of being equipped with a working knowledge of what the principle teachings of Christianity are. This tool can be used in any setting from the seminary classroom to the local street corner.
Written in a workbook style, readers will explore key scriptures and record all that is discovered as each person is equipped to live out the truths they learn.
Whether attending ReachLife Institute, studying with a small group, or going through this workbook alone, your faith will be enriched as the study of these foundational truths are learned and applied to life.

A masterful yet highly accessible work –this is a rare and timely gift to urban ministers and church members alike. Horton takes on the difficult task of taking the seminary to the streets without compromising the content or context on either side. Written concisely and comparatively to Ryrie’s Basic Theology, yet packaged in such a way that the average un-churched, and often under educated, young adults of today’s urban centers will find manageable. I’ve found DNA: Foundations of the Faith to be a helpful must have for all inner city ministries.
