BRIAN SIMMONS is the lead translator of The Passion Translation(R).
The Passion Translation (TPT) is a heart-level translation that
uses Hebrew, Greek, and Aramaic manuscripts to express God's fiery
heart of love to this generation, merging the emotion and
life-changing truth of God's Word. The hope for TPT is to trigger
inside every reader an overwhelming response to the truth of the
Bible and to reveal the deep mysteries of the Scriptures in the
love language of God, the language of the heart. Brian is currently
translating the Old Testament.
After a dramatic conversion to Christ in 1971, Brian and his wife,
Candice, answered the call of God to leave everything behind and
become missionaries to unreached peoples. Taking their three
children to the tropical rain forest of Central America, they
planted churches for many years with the Paya-Kuna people group.
Brian established leadership for the churches that Jesus birthed
and, having been trained in linguistics and Bible translation
principles, assisted with the translation of the Paya-Kuna New
Testament.
After their ministry overseas, Brian and Candice returned to North
America, where Brian began to passionately work toward helping
people encounter the risen Christ. He and his wife planted numerous
ministries, including a dynamic church in New England (US). They
also established Passion & Fire Ministries, under which they travel
full time as Bible teachers in service of local churches throughout
the world.
Brian is the author of numerous books, Bible studies, and
devotionals that help readers encounter God's heart and experience
a deeper revelation of God as our Bridegroom-King, including Throne
Room Prayer, The Sacred Journey, Prayers on Fire, The Divine
Romance, and The Vision.
Brian and Candice have been married since 1971 and have three
children as well as precious grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Their passion is to live as loving examples of a spiritual father
and mother to this generation.
