David Teems is the author of TYNDALE: The Man Who Gave God An English Voice [Thomas Nelson, 2012]. His other books include MAJESTIE: The King Behind the King James Bible [Thomas Nelson, 2011], DISCOVERING YOUR SPIRITUAL CENTER: The Power of Psalm 119 [Leafwood Publishers, 2011], AND THEREBY HANGS A TALE: What I Really Know About the Devoted Life I Learned From My Dogs [Harvest House, 2010], and TO LOVE IS CHRIST: 365 Devotions [Thomas Nelson, 2005].
There are two sides to David Teems (more if you look close enough). Having made his living for years playing music, he began the slow migration to books. Published in 2005, music was shuttled off to the margins. In 2012, he was given old Martin guitar, and with it the joy of music again. With the five published books he’s written, he intends to record more music as well. Look for ALL THAT MATTERS, a new recording, by Fall ’15. His heart is literary. There is a lyric beneath all the noise.
Between imagination and faith there exists a kind of twilight. That simply means in the divide between them, eyes are irrelevant. Sight comes by another method, by a deeper, more reliable sense. “We walk in faith and see not” (2 Corinthians 5:7 Tyndale New Testament).—TYNDALE: The Man Who Gave God An English Voice [p. 46]
David grew up in Atlanta, GA and graduated with a BA in Psychology from Georgia State University. After one semester of graduate school (educational psychology}, he started playing music professionally. In 1981, David began writing and performing Christian music. In 1982 he fell in love with a girl from West Virginia and married her two years later. He and Benita just celebrated 30 years of marriage. They have two sons, Adam and Shad. Adam married Katie Rogers in 2001 (the same year David’s father died). Adam and Katie have three children, Julian, Evie, and Audrey Gray. David and Benita live near their sons in Franklin, TN.
