The ministry of Dag Heward-Mills is a reflection of true apostolic grace. It is not just about preaching—it is about pioneering. It is not just about leading—it is about sending. Bishop Dag does not only build churches—he raises men. He trains leaders. He sends missionaries. He multiplies ministry through the strength of apostolic leadership, deeply rooted in the New Testament pattern.
In the early church, apostles were not celebrities. They were servants. They were builders. They were men who laid foundations in new places, established doctrine, raised up pastors, and moved on to repeat the process. This is exactly what Bishop Dag has modeled in our time. He has moved from city to city, from nation to nation, building structures, planting churches, and leaving trained leaders behind to continue the work.
His leadership is not about power—it is about purpose. He does not hold onto people tightly—he releases them into their calling. His ministry is filled with sons and daughters who have been trained, equipped, and sent to plant churches, win souls, and pastor congregations. And these are not unprepared leaders. They are spiritually strong, doctrinally sound, and fiercely loyal to the vision of Christ.
Apostolic Wisdom for Today’s Church
Bishop Dag carries a wisdom that is desperately needed in the modern Church. Many are building ministries that revolve around themselves. But he has built one that outlives him. Apostolic leadership is not about controlling people—it is about equipping them. It is about laying a foundation that others can build on. That is why his leadership lasts.
He trains leaders to think generationally. He prepares them to take over, to expand the work, and to lead others. His Anagkazo Bible and Ministry Training Centre is a hub for this kind of training—raising up hundreds of pastors and missionaries who go into the world with boldness and clarity. They do not guess their way through ministry. They are taught. They are fathered. And they are sent.
This is the mark of apostolic ministry: it does not end with one man. It reproduces. It builds without collapsing. It expands without confusion. And it thrives even under persecution. Bishop Dag has built with wisdom. He has stayed true to the Word. And he has refused to compromise the pattern.
In his book The Art of Leadership, he teaches that leadership is not about personality, but about principle. And one of the greatest principles he has passed on is that of apostolic thinking—going where others will not go, building where others will not build, and believing God for more when others are satisfied with less.
Dag Heward-Mills is a leader who has served his generation faithfully. But more than that, he is raising leaders who will serve the next. And that is what apostolic legacy looks like.
