david teems

More than seven years after its release, best-selling author David Teems' critically acclaimed, chart-topping biography, Tyndale: The Man Who Gave God An English Voice, is enjoying a resurgence in popularity as the e-book version of the title claimed the top spot on multiple Amazon Kindle sales charts this week, including Religion & Spirituality: Education, History: Biblical History & Culture, and Christian Books & Bibles: History.

Teems also landed on the Top 10 of Amazon's Most Popular Authors in several book categories this week, including No. 3 on History & Culture, No. 5 on Europe, and No. 8 on History.

This week also saw Teems in the Top 10 of Amazon's Most Popular Authors in several Kindle e-book categories, claiming the No. 4 spot on History, No. 6 on Biographies & Memoirs, and No. 8 on Religion & Spirituality.   

"Any writer enjoys seeing their book at a No. 1 spot, and for that I am grateful," says Teems. "But it gives me even greater joy, and I do not exaggerate, to see that the translator-poet-martyr William Tyndale himself is getting the attention he is long overdue, not only as the man who gave us our quintessential English Bible, but who shaped the very English we speak today."  

To help fuel the fire, publisher Thomas Nelson is making the Kindle version of Tyndale: The Man Who Gave God An English Voiceavailable for just $0.99, exclusively from Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/Tyndale-Man-Gave-English-Voice-ebook/dp/B005ENBB60/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=).

The title is also available in trade paperback, audiobook, and MP3 CD versions. 

With thoughtful clarity and a reverence that comes through on every page of Tyndale: The Man Who Gave God An English Voice, Teems shares a story of intrigue and atrocity, betrayal and perseverance. This book shines a light on how the Reformation officially reached English shores-- and what it cost the men who brought it there. Teems is no stranger to accolades for his scholarly, yet remarkably accessible, biographies.   

Tyndale: The Man Who Gave God An English Voice has previously hit the No. 1 position on Amazon's Christian Bible History & Culture chart multiple times in the Kindle format, andTeems has been featured as an expert on Tyndale on The National Geographic Channel's (Nat Geo) critically acclaimed mini-series, Origins: The Journey of Humankind, with host Jason Silva.  

Teems was also named one of the Top 10 Most Popular Authors in Biographies in 2017 byAmazon, sharing the Top 10 with notable authors Hillary Clinton and Eric Metaxas, among others.  100 Huntley Street TV host Jim Cantelon has called Teems' biography, Majestie: The King Behind the King James Bible, "one of the best written books I've ever read."   

Dr. Craig von Buseck, Editor of Digital Content for Inspiration Ministries' influential website, Inspiration.org, comments: "I teach at writer's conferences and I've said many times, if you want to read a great writer, read David Teems. His writing is lyrical. I've read several of his books, includingMajestie, which is about the reign of King James and his famous Bible; Tyndale: The Man who Gave God an English Voice; and the devotional book, Discovering Your Spiritual Center. I loved them all. David builds on his writing legacy with his latest book, Godspeed: Voices of the Reformation."    

Godspeed: Voices of the Reformation (Abingdon Press, 2017), includes 365 daily devotionals. Each one includes an anecdote from the life of an instrumental reformer or a teaching from his or her ministry efforts. Teems then goes on to offer a brief interpretation or modern application, a prayer, a benediction, and an interesting historical tidbit. He frames the teachings with carefully selected, relevant passages of Scripture from early translations.
