As teachers and psalmists, the Tarkingtons believe that, whether preaching or singing, one must always stay under the anointing of God.
Trained under Bishop Keith A. Butler, of Word of Faith International Christian Center, in Southfield, Michigan, their lives are devoted to hearing and delivering the right word at the right time, in the right place.
Flowing together, they have the ability to minister to pastors, ministers, families, and individuals seeking more of God. Their ministry is marked with a spiritual fervor and zeal that helps every believer to see that they are able to move mountains and change their lives for the better, by using the principles taught in Gods Word to affect that change.
In 1998, after a successful business career in which they built, led, and spoke for groups of independent business owners, the Tarkingtons followed the Lords calling to go into full time ministry.
Dean has been privileged to travel with Bishop Keith A. Butler as praise and worship leader, armor-bearer, and as a psalmist. Dean also served at Faith Christian Center, Phoenix, Arizona, as senior assistant pastor.
As an ordained minister, Gloria served as a gifted praise and worship leader, psalmist, and instructor in the Bible Training Center, where her heart and focus was on praise, worship, and prayer.
The vision of Tarkington Ministries is to usher God's glory into the church and to be a blessing to the world through singing, teaching, and preaching God's anointed Word.
Mark 16:20
