Born in Bluefield, West Virginia , Joani is no stranger
to tragedy. At age 11, her childhood was suddenly
interrupted when her father passed away. She credits her
dad, a choir director, for her love of music. A year
later, when she became a Christian, Joani says, “Christ
became my father.” Joani is a pastor’s wife. Her
husband, Dr. Glenn A. Tabor, Jr., prayerfully supports
her ministry. The couple lost a child, and again she
found comfort in Christ. That grace is truly reflective
of Joani’s heart.
Joani quickly gained national recognition with an
impressive “Female Vocalist of the Year” and Gold Cross
award-winning musical career. Her first professional
recording contract featured a national release
“Nothing’s Gonna Steal My Joy”. The song charted
nationally, an amazing accomplishment for a release from
a new artist. It was the first of many songs to chart on
the national Christian music charts. She has completed
numerous recording projects, a live video and recordings
of her seminar teachings. Her music has received stellar
reviews from national Christian music magazines. Joani
continues to merit accolades.
Throughout her ministry, Joani has had the opportunity
to entertain presidents and national leaders. Among
those are the Reverend Billy Graham, who says of Joani,
“The Lord has blessed you with a remarkable musical
gift. I am so glad you are able to use it for His
glory”, Jim Nabors (Gomer Pyle), who says, “Joani, my
friend, it was great. I really enjoyed your singing.
Your music is excellent. You are a very talented lady.
Keep on singing.”, and former First Lady, Nancy Reagan,
who says, “I send you my warmest best wishes and good
luck with your career.”
Audiences find her warm stage presence
and unassuming manner very refreshing.
Joani holds a “Master of Theology” degree. Besides
having taught voice, she speaks for colleges,
universities, retreats, conventions and seminars. Joani
has a passion for women’s conferences and retreats and
focuses much of her attention in those areas. She has
seen as many as three hundred respond to Christ in a
single invitation.
Joani says, “My life verse is 1 Peter 5:7, ‘Let Him have
all your worries and cares, for He is always thinking
about you and watching everything that concerns you.’ I
have a clear call to follow Jesus in ministry. My
commitment to evangelism is central.”
