Seventh-day Adventist Church spokesman Fred Kinsey was selected earlier this month as the new speaker/director of the church's Voice of Prophecy broadcast, succeeding E. Lonnie Melashenko, who spent 17 years in the role.
Kinsey will also continue to serve in his current role as assistant to the president for Communication for the Adventist Church in North America.
"I'm glad that Fred Kinsey is able to help give voice to the message of the Voice of Prophecy," said Don C. Schneider, chairman of the VOP Board of Trustees and president of the Adventist Church in North America, which sponsors the broadcast. "Fred is a veteran of pastoral ministry as well as communications, and he lives to share God's love with people, which is exactly the aim of every VOP broadcast."
Founded in 1929 by Pastor H.M.S. Richards, Sr., the Voice of Prophecy has blanketed North America and inspired similar radio outreaches in many languages around the world.
"I'm honored to follow the broadcasting pioneers who established and grew the VOP over the years, H.M.S. Richards Sr. and his son, Harold, as well as Lonnie Melashenko," Kinsey said. "There is a world that needs this message, and I look to God for His help in sharing it."
Kinsey is a longtime Adventist pastor, having earned an undergraduate degree from Loma Linda University in California and a master of divinity degree at the Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary in Berrien Springs, Michigan. He and his wife reside in Silver Spring; they have two adult children.
