✦ MADE SIMPLE

I'm John, and I'm right there with you as your brother — we're in this together through all the hard stuff, sharing in God's kingdom and learning patience through Jesus. I was stuck on this island called Patmos because I wouldn't stop talking about God's message and telling people about Jesus.
