In every move of God, there is a man who carries not only vision but also the grace to raise others into that vision. Dag Heward-Mills is one such man. His ministry has never been about doing it all himself—it has always been about training, mentoring, and releasing others to do the work of the ministry. He has never hoarded the pulpit or spotlight. Instead, he has given his life to raising sons in the Lord—pastors, missionaries, and lay leaders who have now become fathers themselves.
What sets Bishop Dag apart in this generation is his intentionality in mentorship. He doesn’t simply inspire others from a distance; he walks closely with those he trains. He corrects, instructs, encourages, and watches over their progress like a true father. He sees potential where others may only see problems. He pours into men and women not because of what they can do for him, but because of what they can become for the Kingdom.
This fathering spirit is at the heart of his pastoral training model. He doesn’t believe in throwing people into ministry without preparation. He teaches, trains, and tests. He builds a foundation under those he sends, and he keeps watch over them with love and accountability. Just like Paul did with Timothy and Titus, Bishop Dag has raised countless men and women who now faithfully serve the Lord in nations all over the world.
Ministry Schools That Birth Movements
One of the clearest expressions of Bishop Dag’s heart for pastoral training is seen in Anagkazo Bible and Ministry Training Centre. This is not just a school—it is a spiritual furnace. Men and women come from all over the world, many with little to their name except a call from God, and they leave equipped, anointed, and ready to build churches, win souls, and shepherd God’s people.
The training at Anagkazo is both spiritual and practical. Students are taught to pray, to fast, to serve, and to preach. They are immersed in the Word and exposed to real ministry experience. They are mentored in character as much as in skill. And most importantly, they are shaped to carry the same spirit of sacrifice and loyalty that Bishop Dag himself walks in.
This kind of training doesn’t just produce graduates—it produces soldiers. Workers who are ready for hard places, ready to go anywhere, and ready to stay faithful through the storms. Many of them go on to plant churches in villages and cities, often with no support but faith and the Holy Spirit. And yet, they flourish—because they have been fathered and formed under true apostolic mentorship.
Bishop Dag’s legacy will not only be the churches he built but the pastors he raised. These sons and daughters are now raising others, continuing the cycle of spiritual reproduction that keeps the vision alive. This is not just good strategy—it is biblical. It is timeless. And it is bearing fruit that will remain.
