Beau James Howells
Ministry Founder & Overseer
Beau Howells is the Founder & Overseer of Watchfire Ministries in Tampa, Florida. He is a Christian Evangelist, Teacher, Apologist, and deliverance minister whose work is focused on preparing believers to stand faithfully, think biblically, pray fervently, discern prophetically, and walk in the authority of Jesus Christ in these times.
Beau is known for his direct, no-nonsense teaching style, his scripture-first approach, and his willingness to address the hard questions many avoid. His ministry is built around a clear burden: to equip the Church to understand the Prophetic without sensationalism or fear, live in Dynamic Prayer, walk in Kinetic Discipleship, and engage Spiritual Warfare with biblical authority, discernment, and tangible Impact.
With more than 30 years of biblical study and over two decades in active ministry, Beau stands firmly on the unchanging truth of Scripture and the mission of the Church. Times may shift, culture may darken, and deception may increase, but the Living God does not change, and His Word does not fail. Beau’s desire is to meet people where they are, confront what holds them back, and help lead them toward the freedom, maturity, calling, and truth found only in Jesus Christ.
His teaching and research have led him deeply into scripture, hebraic studies, biblical languages, prophecy, apologetics, supernatural worldviews, occult & new age deception, deliverance, and the fringe subjects many ministers avoid, but which do not avoid the people forced to face them. Beau does not approach these areas to entertain curiosity or chase speculation. He approaches them to bring biblical clarity where confusion has taken ground, and to help believers recognize the strategies of darkness without losing confidence in the finished victory of Christ.
Beau has served the Lord and the Church as a local pastor, bishop for an international parachurch organization, chaplain, teacher, author, speaker, and conference and podcast guest. He is an Ordained Minister, Certified Emergency Services Chaplain, Certified Mental Health Coach, Professional Life Coach, and has additional training in natural health, trauma, and crisis counseling.
