Dag Heward-Mills

Der 1963 geborene ghanaische Geistliche und Evangelist Dag Heward-Mills ist der Gründer des weltweiten pfingstlich-charismatischen Kirchennetzwerks United Denominations Originating from the Lighthouse Group of Churches mit Sitz in Accra. Er wurde international vor allem durch großangelegte Missionskampagnen sowie als Autor zahlreicher praxisorientierter Bücher über Gemeindebau und Leiterschaft bekannt. In Bibellese-Apps werden seine Texte als Anleitungen für christliche Hingabe und Evangelisation herangezogen, während seine theologische Betonung unbedingter Loyalität gegenüber geistlichen Leitern sowie Berichte über autoritäre Strukturen in seinem Netzwerk anhaltend in der Kritik stehen.

Charles Haddon Spurgeon

The bow cannot be always bent without fear of breaking. Repose is as needful to the mind as sleep to the body… Rest time is not waste time. It is economy to gather fresh strength.

Charles Haddon Spurgeon

It may be that the Last Day will dawn tomorrow; if so, we will gladly lay down our work for a better future, but not before.

If our identity is in our work, rather than Christ, success will go to our heads, and failure will go to our hearts.

Our Lord's example is our example, not only on Calvary but in the workshop, on the road, in the crowd, amid interruptions, amid opposition, amid the lack of quiet and privacy, amid constant demands.
