There are three ways in which heat is transferred, in general: conduction, convection, and radiation.
Conduction doesn't apply in this situation (since a person isn't warmed by actually touch the fiery object), but the other two do.
Radiation: A person is warmed by the heat radiating from the fire.
Convection: The fire heats the air around it, which cycles through the room, heating the person nearby.
