Dr. Brian Simmons, lead translator for The Passion Translation of the Bible joins me this week for an insightful interview and discussion.

In this episode we cover:

How he handles peoples' criticism that he's a "lone ranger" translating the Bible; and how he learns to listen to critics in case God is speaking to him through them
Epiphanies he had while discovering the appropriate words in the text while translating the Bible into a tribal dialect as a missionary
How his translation work has helped him see a few popular Bible passages we've been misunderstanding in English
We also discuss our mutual favorite book of the book, Song of Songs
I also ask Brian if Jesus spoke in tongues (a question I've been asked since releasing my book on Lies People Believe About Speaking in Tongues.
The importance of translating meanings not just words
And much more...
