Known as the “Sons of Thunder,” my brother and I were passionate and zealous. We witnessed Jesus’ transfiguration on the mountaintop, a moment of divine revelation that strengthened our faith and deepened our commitment to Him.
Episode 3: “The Beloved Disciple”
During the Last Supper, I leaned on Jesus’ chest, feeling His heartbeat. He entrusted me with the care of His mother, Mary, as He hung on the cross. This intimate bond earned me the title of the Beloved Disciple.
Episode 4: “Witness to the Resurrection”
After Jesus’ crucifixion, I ran to the empty tomb with Peter, finding it just as Mary Magdalene had said. The grave clothes were neatly folded, and soon, we saw the risen Christ. This miraculous event solidified my belief and mission.

I served the church in Ephesus, teaching and guiding the believers. My faithfulness led to my exile on the island of Patmos, where I received a series of divine visions that would shape the future of the church.

On Patmos, I was caught up in the Spirit and saw visions of the risen Christ, the heavenly throne, and the unfolding of God’s plan for the end times. These revelations were both awe-inspiring and terrifying.
