Revival is often associated with fiery preaching, mass crusades, and supernatural encounters—and rightly so. But true revival is sustained not just by emotion, but by instruction. It is built through discipleship. And in the ministry of Bishop Dag Heward-Mills, written discipleship has become one of the most effective channels through which revival is being authored.
His books do more than communicate truth. They disciple readers into a lifestyle of revival. The pages are filled with calls to prayer, to sacrifice, to faithfulness, to soul-winning, and to deeper intimacy with God. These are not just spiritual topics—they are revival themes. They provoke the reader to hunger after more, to repent, to realign, and to rise.
Revival doesn’t always begin in a stadium. Sometimes, it begins in the quiet moment when a believer reads a sentence that lights a fire in the soul. Bishop Dag’s writings carry that flame.
Fueling the Fire with Discipleship
Sustained revival requires rooted believers. And rooted believers are formed through discipleship. Bishop Dag has authored materials that walk people through this process—step by step, topic by topic, precept upon precept. His books serve as long-term fuel for spiritual fire, not just a spark for a moment.
When someone finishes a message or returns from a conference, the excitement can fade. But when that person opens a book like Transform Your Pastoral Ministry, The Art of Hearing, or Catch the Anointing, they are fed again. They are refocused. They are called back to the disciplines that keep the fire burning.
This is how revival becomes more than an event. It becomes a way of life.
Awakening the Church from Within
Much of the revival the Church longs for begins within—within leaders, within members, within the structures and systems that shape daily church life. Bishop Dag’s books speak directly into those places. They challenge the routine. They stir the stagnant. They break the crust of tradition and awaken the urgency of the Great Commission.
Through his writing, people begin to see their calling differently. Ministry becomes more than a title—it becomes a burden. Evangelism becomes more than a task—it becomes a heartbeat. Discipleship becomes more than a class—it becomes a lifestyle. And when that happens, revival is not far behind.
The Church is being awakened not just by loud voices, but by written words soaked in truth and Spirit.
Books That Go Where Preachers Cannot
There are many places where a preacher’s voice cannot reach. But a book can. Bishop Dag’s books are found in prisons, schools, rural churches, underground gatherings, and personal libraries. They are passed from hand to hand, generation to generation. In every place they go, they speak of revival—revival that comes through personal surrender and disciplined followership of Jesus.
Revival is not a moment. It is a movement. And through written discipleship, Bishop Dag has authored one of the most enduring revival movements of our time.
