Some truths are always relevant. They never expire, never lose their strength, and never stop transforming lives. Loyalty, leadership, and love are among these timeless themes. And Bishop Dag Heward-Mills has carried them like pillars in his writing ministry for decades. These themes are not just recurring topics in his books—they are convictions etched into his heart.
His teachings on loyalty have brought healing to churches. His leadership books have trained ministers on every continent. And his emphasis on love—love for God, love for people, and love for the Church—runs through every chapter, whether the subject is prayer, the anointing, or spiritual authority.
These themes are not theoretical to him. They are lived. And that is why they bear so much fruit in the lives of those who read.
Loyalty That Preserves the Work of God
In a world where betrayal and division have become common even among believers, Bishop Dag’s books on loyalty stand as a defense around the Church. He writes about loyalty not from a place of offense, but from a deep understanding of what it takes to build something that lasts. Disloyalty destroys. Loyalty builds. And without it, no church can stand.
His loyalty series has become a foundational tool for pastors training church workers, staff, and leaders. It brings clarity to the difference between true sons and hidden rebels. It teaches how to spot seeds of disloyalty early—and how to cultivate a team that will stand the test of time.
But more than that, it restores a spirit of honor and integrity in relationships. Because loyalty, at its core, is about love. Love that stays. Love that protects. Love that fights for unity instead of feeding division.
Leadership That Mirrors Christ
The way Bishop Dag teaches leadership is radically different from the world’s model. In his books like The Art of Leadership and Loyalty and Disloyalty, he consistently points readers back to the leadership style of Jesus—servant-hearted, disciplined, anointed, and sacrificial.
He writes not to build celebrity pastors, but Christlike ones. Leaders who pray. Leaders who lay down their lives. Leaders who develop others instead of competing with them. His leadership principles are filled with Scripture, real-life examples, and spiritual insight that brings lasting transformation.
For anyone called to lead in the Church, his books provide more than instruction—they provide a compass.
Love That Fuels Ministry
Love is not just an emotion in Bishop Dag’s writings—it is a spiritual force. He teaches that without love, ministry becomes empty. Without love, leadership becomes manipulation. And without love, loyalty becomes control. Love is the motivation behind everything we do for God.
His books constantly call readers back to their first love. They remind us that people are not numbers. That the sheep must be fed, not used. That the goal of ministry is not achievement, but obedience—fueled by love for the One who called us.
These three themes—loyalty, leadership, and love—form a spiritual triangle in his teachings. Together, they build strong churches, faithful ministers, and believers who can endure through every season.
