David Teems - who has written 16 posts on Transparent Christian Magazine.
David Teems is a published author, songwriter and stellar musician, who has lived 'by means of the word' for over 20 years. David was "Indie" long before that term was used to described working artists and writers. It is the privilege of Transparent Christian Magazine to have David 'sign on' for a regular column. "With Love in Mind" will highlight his writing, and from time to time will reference his book "To Love is Christ" (which is an amazing devotional that I am reading) and his upcoming publication "And Thereby Hangs a Tale--Finally, it was my dogs who taught me to stop and smell, well, everything.".

I WAS SCHEDULED TO OFFICIATE a wedding this past weekend. I stayed home instead. But before passing judgment on me, here’s my story.

Touch me, remind me who I am. Stanley Kunitz Scripture says, “Seek the LORD while he may be found; call on him while he is near.” If only it was as simple as singing another song, reciting a few oaths, lifting up hands, or even reading his book. These are all fine, but I think [...]
