Bishop Dag Heward-Mills has built his life and ministry on the Word of God. For him, the Bible is not just a sacred book—it is the source of life, the final authority, and the tool for transformation. He reads it, studies it, lives it, and teaches it with passion and precision. His entire ministry flows from his relationship with the Word.
From his quiet time teachings to his full-time Bible schools, Bishop Dag has committed himself to shaping believers through the systematic, Spirit-filled teaching of Scripture. He believes that when a Christian is grounded in the Word, they become strong, wise, and fruitful in every area of life.
The School of the Word is not a physical location. It is a lifestyle. It is a commitment to making the Word the foundation of all growth, ministry, and spiritual maturity.
Teaching That Equips for Ministry
One of Bishop Dag’s greatest contributions to the Body of Christ is how he equips ordinary believers to become extraordinary ministers through the Word. He does not believe ministry is for a select few. He believes every believer has a part to play, and the first step is being trained in the Scriptures.
Through his teaching, people begin to understand the Bible not just as a devotional tool, but as a manual for life and leadership. He shows them how the Word applies to relationships, finances, decision-making, and spiritual warfare. He teaches them how to preach, how to lead, how to shepherd, and how to grow a church—using only the Bible as their guide.
This kind of training builds ministers who are not dependent on hype, but on truth. And because they are grounded in the Word, they can multiply, mentor, and mature others.
A Bible School in Every Church
Bishop Dag’s vision is to turn every church into a Bible school. Whether it’s a small congregation in a village or a large urban church, he believes the people must be taught. Teaching is not optional—it is vital. Without it, believers will remain shallow and ineffective.
He encourages pastors to teach systematically, to take their members through books, themes, and spiritual disciplines. His “Loyalty and Disloyalty” series, “Church Planting Manual,” “The Art of Leadership,” and many others have become textbooks in churches across the world.
He teaches leaders to raise thinkers, not just shouters. Disciples, not just attendees. People who can handle the Word accurately and apply it boldly.
Feeding the Flock, Building the Future
For Bishop Dag, teaching is not just about information—it’s about feeding the flock. He often says that the sheep must be fed. And he feeds them with doctrine, wisdom, and prophetic insight from the Word. He doesn’t assume the people know. He teaches them. Line by line. Verse by verse.
This feeding has raised strong, faithful believers. Many of his pastors were once young members sitting in church, listening to his teachings. But over time, through faithful instruction, they grew into ministers, missionaries, and leaders.
The School of the Word has built a ministry that is both wide and deep. It reaches across nations, but it also roots people in truth. And through it all, Bishop Dag continues to teach, train, and transform.
Because the Word still works—and the School of the Word is still open.
