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, and consultant. Having been trained in linguistics and Bible translation principles, Brian assisted in the Paya-Kuna New Testament translation project. After his ministry overseas, 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 the lead translator of The Passion Translation.
The Passion Translation is a refreshing, dynamic version of the
ancient Scriptures. Most translations of the Bible communicate what
God has said, but The Passion Translation communicates equally
God's heart behind the words. It is a beautiful, moving read.

Pathway to Spirituality and Praying the Bible: The Book of Prayers,
wesleystaceycampbell.com Over the past few years, The Passion
Translation has deeply changed my life. In the summer of 2016 I
brought Letters From Heaven including Galatians, Ephesians,
Philippians, Colossians, and I & II Timothy on vacation with me to
read in the early hours of morning before my children woke up.
Little did I know how eye opening this translation would be. I
found myself weeping in the midst of revelation and then laughing
at the goodness and profound nature of God's love for us. I not
only saw the word of God with fresh lenses, but with a depth I've
never experienced. I cannot encourage you enough to dig into The
Passion Translation.

The Passion Translation makes powerful truths more accessible and
at the same time stirs our inner man to rejoice and receive.

Translation will be the Bible of choice for the next Jesus people

Forged many years ago while translating the Scriptures among South
American tribes, and hammered out on the anvil of decades of
personal devotion and apostolic experience, my dear friend Brian
Simmons brings to the earth a powerful and refreshing translation
of the Scriptures that is fueling and inflaming the hearts of tens
of thousands world wide. Like the Living Bible that sprung forth in
the days of the Jesus Movement, this translation bursts forth from
the womb of this present revival. Read it and get caught up in a
God-swirl of spiritual understanding and revelation.

I have devoured The Passion Translation! There is a fragrance of
God's Spirit that emanates from the powerful expressions that Brian
Simmons has brought forth in this translation. Not only have I used
The Passion Translation for teaching, but I have picked up certain
books of the Bible and read them like a living novel. I love this
translation!

job my friend and seasoned leader is doing for the Body of Christ!
I applaud the life and ministry of Dr. Brian Simmons!

One of the greatest things to happen with Bible translation in my
lifetime.

Simmons' work is truly breathtaking! We so appreciate the labor of
love that went into translating the Scriptures. The Passion
Translation has energized our study of the Bible, and we're certain
it will do the same for you.

Best-Selling Authors
The Word of God is our collective and yet deeply personal love
letter from above. It positions you and me within proven, godly
wisdom and gives precious insight into the heart, nature, and
goodness of God. I have loved the individual books published thus
far from The Passion Translation, and look forward with great
anticipation to adding the entire New Testament with Psalms,
Proverbs, and Song of Songs to my own private (and public) reading.
With my husband, Brian, and our Hillsong church family, we know
these pages will bring to life the One whose name is Jesus whose
passion is humanity and whose heart is for you.
- Bobbie Houston - Co-Senior Pastor, Hillsong Church The Passion
Translation skillfully penned by Dr. Brian Simmons contains deep
treasures that can only be discovered through intense scholarly
research saturated in Divine Revelation. Dr. Brian Simmons
fulfilled both of these criteria so he could present to you this
glorious gift. Keys to knowing the heart of God and His deep love
for His people will fill you as you read and meditate on the
scriptures. I personally cannot get enough of this translation! It
is beyond beautiful!
