About the Translator:

Dr. Brian Simmons is a passionate lover of God. After a dramatic conversion to Christ, Brian knew that God was calling him to go to the unreached people of the world and present the gospel of God’s grace to all who would listen. With his wife, Candice, and their three children, he spent eight years in the tropical rain forest of the Darien Province of Panama as a church planter, translator, linguist, and consultant. Brian assisted in the Paya-Kuna New Testament translation project. After their ministry in the jungle, Brian was instrumental in planting a thriving church in New England (U.S.) and currently travels full time as a speaker and Bible teacher. He is currently the lead translator of The Passion Translation.
