Time has a way of testing the sincerity of a man’s calling. For many, what begins with passion can slowly fade into routine. But in the life of Dag Heward-Mills, the fire for evangelism has not only endured—it has intensified. Decades after he first stood behind a pulpit, the same burden that drove him as a young man still burns brightly in his heart. His voice still trembles with urgency. His heart still breaks for the lost. His feet still travel to the unreached. The fire has not gone out.
This is not the result of willpower—it is the result of a deep walk with God. Bishop Dag has remained connected to the Source. His prayer life fuels his preaching. His obedience feeds his calling. His love for Christ keeps him grounded. And because of that, his fire has never become familiar. It is fresh. It is alive. And it continues to stir thousands into action.
Wherever he goes—whether on a crusade field or in a pastors’ conference—he preaches with one aim: to awaken hearts to the need for souls. He is not distracted by personal ambition or public applause. His eyes are set on eternity. His message is clear. The harvest is still white, and the laborers are still few. And through his life, God continues to raise more laborers.
Keeping the Vision Alive
The strength of Bishop Dag’s evangelistic ministry lies in how well he has passed the fire on to others. He has not allowed the vision to remain trapped in one person. He has imparted it to his pastors, missionaries, lay leaders, and even his youngest members. The fire of evangelism is not hidden in a conference room—it burns in the hearts of everyday believers who now preach, serve, and reach the lost with boldness.
Through books like Tell Them and The Art of Soul Winning, Bishop Dag has preserved the message for generations. He has written with urgency, taught with passion, and lived with conviction. His teachings on evangelism are not suggestions—they are calls to action. And those who hear him cannot remain the same. Something awakens. Something stirs. And that is how fire spreads.
This enduring fire is a gift to the Body of Christ. It reminds us that the gospel is not a side project. It is the central mission. It is the heartbeat of heaven. And as long as there is breath in his lungs, Bishop Dag Heward-Mills will keep preaching it, living it, and passing it on.
