AUTHOR AND MUSICIAN DAVID TEEMS FEATURED AT EXCLUSIVE GLORIA GAITHER EVENT

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (April 10, 2013) – Author and musician David Teems recently was featured at Gloria Gaither’s Sacred Saturday Brunch, an annual event hosted by the Gospel music icon in the Common Place room at Gaither Family Resources in Indiana. This year’s brunch was titled “The Bible Speaks English.” Teems spoke to the audience, who gathered for a meal and the presentation, about his latest Thomas Nelson book, Tyndale: The Man Who Gave God An English Voice.

“What an experience we had with David Teems and his insights into the real man behind the name William Tyndale! Everyone who filled the Common Place gained a new and genuine appreciation for the wordsmith that gave us the Bible in English—and such beautiful and memorable English that it is rivaled only by William Shakespeare,” says Gaither. “Not only is David Teems a deep well of scholarship and careful research, he is also an articulate inspirer who can make his historical subjects come alive for today’s Bible readers. A shared banquet of typical English foods—King James would have been proud—gave all who attended time to discuss and ask questions, and to share favorite passages from the King James translation that borrowed so much from the work of William Tyndale. We all left thinking of several friends and family members with whom we would have loved to have shared this amazing experience.” Read more »
