The 21st century is filled with distractions, technology, and endless noise. In the midst of it all, the cry for souls has not gone silent. It still echoes from heaven, calling for laborers, calling for compassion, calling for preachers. And one of the clearest voices answering that cry is Bishop Dag Heward-Mills.
He has not been distracted by the comforts or complexities of the modern world. He has remained focused on the greatest need of all—the salvation of the lost. While others chase relevance, he chases souls. While others adjust their message to suit the times, he lifts up the same old rugged cross that still has the power to save.
His ministry has become a modern-day trumpet, reminding the Church that the Great Commission has not changed. Souls are still the priority. Hell is still real. And the Gospel is still the answer.
A Burden That Transcends Borders
One of the most remarkable things about Bishop Dag is that his burden is not limited to his own nation or culture. His cry for souls is global. Whether he is preaching in West Africa, ministering in the Caribbean, or writing for pastors in Asia, the message is the same: people everywhere need Jesus.
He sees souls when others see statistics. He sees eternal value where others see inconvenience. This burden doesn’t rest, because souls are constantly slipping into eternity. And he believes that every moment matters, every city matters, and every soul matters.
His books are translated, his messages are streamed, his crusades are recorded—not for fame, but so that more people can hear the Gospel and be saved.
Breaking Through the Silence
In many parts of the modern Church, the cry for souls has been replaced with other concerns. Success, popularity, and influence have taken center stage. But Bishop Dag continues to preach the unpopular truths. He calls sin what it is. He preaches repentance without apology. And he leads altar calls with tears in his voice and fire in his heart.
He breaks through the silence with the urgency of eternity. He refuses to let the Church forget its mission. He refuses to let the devil have the last word. Through crusades, books, camps, and mentoring, he keeps calling believers back to the feet of Jesus—and back to the souls He died for.
The cry for souls is not a marketing theme. It is a spiritual awakening. And Bishop Dag has been chosen to carry it in this generation.
A Generation That Must Rise
Bishop Dag’s ministry is not only about what he does—it’s about who he calls. He is raising a generation of soul-winners. He is calling young people to put down their excuses and pick up the cross. He is challenging pastors to leave their comfort zones and go after the lost. He is mobilizing the Church to remember that we were saved to save others.
He believes that the Church must not grow cold in the face of so much spiritual need. The world may be modern, but the mission is still ancient: Go into all the world and preach the Gospel.
And so he keeps crying—not with fear, but with faith. Not with frustration, but with fire. He cries because he believes. He cries because he loves. He cries because Jesus still saves.
Dag Heward-Mills is not just echoing an old message—he is living it. And through his ministry, the cry for souls in the 21st century is not just being heard—it is being answered.
