 Meet Johnny

Playing great music from the 60’s and 70’s was the only thing that could lure Johnny Kincaid back to the airwaves after a 12 year break from radio and he’s enjoying every minute of it.

Kincaid grew up listening to top-40 radio in the Pacific Northwest and applied for his radio license before receiving his driver’s permit. By the time he graduated high school he had moved from weekends to full-time night disc jockey on his hometown AM Top 40 station.

In 1984 he was hired to do mornings on WKDQ (before the station became the country music giant it is today) and decided that Evansville was a great place to live.

Now, in addition to what he calls his “on-air therapy sessions,” he works as a tobacco prevention specialist at Smokefree Communities. Johnny also loves to spend time with his wife, Jill, and volunteers in prison ministry.

 Johnny's Interests

General: Prayer is a biggie with me. I even started a website called Pray4Evansville.com and I'm using the site to bring prayer groups together.  After my relationship with the Lord comes my family and friends. I also enjoy all things electronic (but don't call me a geek). I'm also involved in prison ministry and will lead a team of 55 men on a 3 day missions trip inside Wabash Valley Correctional Facility on Labor Day weekend.

Music: Obviously, I'm very passionate about the Superhits. I've always enjoyed the Beatles, Motown, and beach music.

Television: I've given up on the broadcast networks and watch Food Network and Discovery a lot instead. On Friday nights, I'm parked in front of the TV to watch Monk and Psych.

Movies: We don't get to the theater as much as I'd like to. In fact I missed every movie that I wanted to see this summer. All time favorite movies include Field of Dreams and Fried Green Tomatoes.

While the Christian faith tells us that good works alone won't get us to Heaven, we are called to be a reflection of God's love here on Earth.

One of those who recently reflected God's love is Jimmy Lefler. He put his faith in action to assist some recent crime victims.

While participating in Race for the Cure, some people returned to their cars to find that they were victims of theives who smashed windows to snatch items from the vehicles.

After hearing this story, Lefler's Body Shop offerd to cover the deductable for those crime victims. Jimmy said that they didn't deserve to be punished for doing something good for the community.

What a great way to put your faith in action, thanks Jimmy!
