This book is a collection of tributes from family, friends, and coworkers from various Christian organizations around the world whose lives were enriched by the late Dr. Duewel.  This book was produced following Dr. Duewel’s graduation to glory to fulfill the stated desire from the number of people who expressed interest in wanting to have something in print that reminded them of Dr. Duewel, and were waiting on the publication of his autobiography by the same title which was his final publication objective at the time of his passing.

Dr. Wesley L. Duewel invested himself in the cause of missions for more than 70 years. Following ministry in India, he served as president of One Mission Society. After stepping aside from the presidency of OMS, he served as President Emeritus and Special Assistant to the President for Evangelism and Intercession.

At the encouragement of the OMS Board of trustees, Dr. Duewel incorporated the Duewel Literature Trust and launched a distinguished career as an author. His writings on the Holy Spirit, revival, and soul winning call God’s people back to prayer, the source of all power and passion for ministry. His hundreds of poems and all of his books express his hunger and passion. His articles appeared in many publications, and he edited Revival Magazine, published in 12 languages. His book Touch the World through Prayer, published in 1986, is now in its 32nd printing. Later books, Let God Guide You Daily, Ablaze for God, Mighty Prevailing Prayer, Measure Your Life, Revival Fire, God’s Power Is for You, More God, More Power and Heroes of the Holy Life are also widely acclaimed. More than 2.5 million copies of his books are now in circulation in 58 languages or national editions around the world. International editions continue to be published, especially in India.

Recognized as an authority on missions, Dr. Duewel served on the board of directors and as president of the Evangelical Foreign Mission Association (now Missio Nexus), on the North American Board of the World Evangelical Fellowship, on the board of the National Association of Evangelicals, and as a life trustee of Asbury Theological Seminary. In September 2007, The Mission Exchange (formerly Evangelical Foreign Mission Association – now Missio Nexus) honored him with their first-ever Lifetime of Service Award. Also, during his years in India, he followed closely the development of postwar independent India. He was prominent in leadership of the North India Christian Literature Society, as well as the Bible Society of India. He helped pioneer the Evangelical Fellowship of India and, for a time, served as its President. In October 2009, the Evangelical Fellowship of India presented him with the “Lifetime Service Award in recognition of his servant leadership exemplified to the Body of Christ and faithful contribution to the Church and Mission in India.”

Dr. Duewel held the earned degree of Doctor of Education from the University of Cincinnati and an honorary Doctor of Divinity from Taylor University.  A much appreciated speaker, he ministered in more than 45 countries. In March 2016, just three months short of his 100th birthday, God called Dr. Duewel to his heavenly reward.
