WZWP is an American non-commercial FM radio station located in West Union, Ohio, and operates on the assigned frequency of 89.5 MHz. As of May 2012, WZWP is one of five stations that operate under the name of King of Kings Radio.

WZWP's programming consists of Christian talk and teaching shows such as Back to the Bible, Focus on the Family, Love Worth Finding with Adrian Rogers, In Touch with Charles Stanley, Tony Evans, and Unshackled!. WZWP also airs a variety of Christian music.[1]

The station previously had the call sign of WVXW and was owned by Cincinnati Classical Public Radio. Three repeater stations (including WVXW) were sold to Christian Voice of Central Ohio in 2007 because of the small population and lack of a revenue stream from the outlying communities and to pay off the debt,[2] incurred by the purchase of 7 stations in 2005 from Xavier University for $15 million.[3]

Somerset Educational Broadcasting Foundation took over WZWP in the summer of 2011 and made the station into part of its "King of Kings Radio" network. Prior to the takeover, the station aired a contemporary Christian and Christian teaching format branded as "89.5 The River."
