For GTK1 apps, use gnomecc (in there, go to Desktop -> Theme Selector -> User Font). For GTK2 apps, use gnome-control-center or gnome-font-properties (I use the former, because the latter likes to change my wallpaper).

If you don't have Gnome itself installed (just GTK), edit ~/.gtkrc. If it includes other gtkrc files, edit those files as you see fit for global use, or add this bit to change the font just for you:
Code:

style "default"
{
 fontset="-standard-X-font-string"
}
widget_class "*" style "default"


Of course, you can customize it further by setting different fonts for different widgets... Personally, I find this irritating, and don't know the widget class names.
