Dag Heward-Mills: A Healing Evangelist With a Shepherd’s Heart

By worldevangelismblog.com

At the center of Bishop Dag Heward-Mills’ healing evangelism is not merely power—it is compassion. Like Jesus, who was moved with compassion and healed the sick, Bishop Dag ministers healing from a heart that is broken for the suffering. His Healing Jesus Campaigns are not designed for performance. They are born from a deep desire to see people saved, healed, and made whole—spirit, soul, and body.

He does not stand on crusade platforms as a distant figure. He walks among the people, sees their pain, and feels the burden of their bondage. It is from this place of empathy that he preaches the Gospel and lays hands on the sick. Healing ministry, to him, is not an optional extra. It is part of the full Gospel.

The miracles may draw the crowd, but it is the love of Christ flowing through him that keeps them listening—and brings many to salvation.

Preaching the Gospel of Power and Mercy

Bishop Dag is first and foremost a preacher of the Gospel. His healing ministry does not stand on its own—it flows from the message of Christ crucified, risen, and returning. He consistently reminds people that healing is not the main point; salvation is. Every healing is a signpost pointing to the Saviour.

At each campaign, after preaching a clear message of repentance and faith, he prays for the sick. And God confirms His Word with power. Deaf ears open, blind eyes see, and many who were carried to the crusade grounds walk away healed. These moments are not hyped—they are holy. They are moments when heaven touches earth, and the name of Jesus is glorified.

Even so, Bishop Dag never allows the miracles to overshadow the message. He teaches that healing is a demonstration of God’s mercy, and mercy is most powerfully seen in the forgiveness of sin.

Healing That Flows From the Heart of a Shepherd

Though he moves in healing power, Bishop Dag’s heart remains that of a shepherd. He does not treat healing ministry as an event. He sees it as part of caring for God’s people. Whether in a crusade field or a quiet church service, his approach is always marked by gentleness, humility, and sincerity.

When people are healed, he celebrates—not with showmanship, but with gratitude. When people are not healed, he encourages them—not with excuses, but with compassion and faith. He never manipulates. He simply believes and prays.

This shepherd’s heart is what gives depth to his evangelistic calling. It is not about crowds. It is about people. It is not about numbers. It is about souls. And because he ministers from that place, God continues to honor his prayers with power.

A Ministry That Reflects the Heart of Jesus

In every city where the Healing Jesus Campaign goes, lives are touched and hearts are transformed. And through it all, Bishop Dag remains consistent. He preaches Jesus. He heals the sick. He loves the people. And he gives God all the glory.

His healing ministry is not a side note. It is a reflection of the heart of Jesus—a Saviour who came to seek, to save, and to heal.

As long as there are sick bodies and broken hearts, Bishop Dag will keep going. Not because of duty, but because of love. He is a healing evangelist—but even more than that, he is a shepherd sent by God.
