This article doesn't meet Wikipedia's standards of objectivity, verifiability, or a neutral point of view. It reads like a resume written for a church newsletter or a Christian album cover, full of generalisations, sentimental language and definitive statements without sources:
"Within a year God had other plans for the talented couple...The Tunneys once again felt the pull towards family and began to ask God to allow them more time at home. The Father heard the prayer...Dick and Mel continued on their journey of faith."
While you might feel yourself that God had heard you or blessed you or planned something for you, in a Wikipedia article you can't make such statements without citing sources. A lot of terminology is used which wouldn't make sense to readers outside of a modern American evangelical context: "Dick responded to a call...Christian artist Sandi Patty called and hired Dick...plugging Dick and Mel into their local church's worship ministry," and referring to Christians as "believers."
Neither is it appropriate to say "Mel continued to be a top-notch session singer in Nashville." It's biased. If you're quoting a critic who called her "top notch," put it in quote marks and cite your source, but editors themselves can't simply decide she was "top notch."
I'm going to make some simple changes, including removing altogether filler phrases like "As 2006 dawned, yet another chapter began to unfold in the lives of the Tunneys." The article still needs to cite more sources. Sadiemonster (talk) 05:25, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
