Pastor Michael A. Thompson, Sr. is a man who is called, ordained, chosen, anointed and sent by God. Pastor Thompson is indeed a gifted and anointed man of God. He’s a preacher, teacher, singer, songwriter, musician, and an accomplished gospel recording artist. As it relates to broadcasting, Pastor Michael Thompson is definitely no stranger! He is a 15 year veteran broadcaster, as he got his early start in broadcasting at WVFG-FM radio in his home state of Alabama.

After relocating to Pensacola, Florida in 2009 to pastor Greater Union Baptist Church, Pastor Thompson became a part of the WRNE Radio family and served as the Gospel Program Director and on-air personality until October 2020.

During his tenure at WRNE, numerous individuals were inspired, strengthened, uplifted, encouraged, and blessed on a daily basis as they would tune in keeping their radios “locked & blocked” to the “Victory in Praise” broadcast. This broadcast had a diverse format of music that ranged from traditional quartet, praise and worship, some contemporary, and choir music. While he is grateful for the stations that have played an integral part in his successful broadcasting career, Pastor Thompson and the “Victory in Praise” broadcast now have a new home at WEUI-DB Gospel Radio, Pensacola, FL. The “Victory in Praise” broadcast can be heard weekdays Mon-Fri, from 9am – 1pm.
