"I'm super excited to be co-hosting the 46th Annual GMA Dove Awards this year," Erica Campbell says. "It's going to be an amazing night especially since I get to stand next to the lovely Sadie Robertson as co-host! I truly believe we are better together! I believe God smiles when we stand united for His Glory!"

"I'm so excited to host this years Dove Awards," Sadie Robertson says. "It is a true honor to be able to share the stage with Erica Campbell, and it's going to be a great night. I am really looking forward to it!"

Campbell recalls one of her fondest Dove Awards memories as she prepares for her hosting spotlight. "I remember my first Dove Awards performance with gospel legend Kirk Franklin at the Grand Ole Opry! Tina (of Mary Mary) and I were so nervous and excited! But the audience praised God with us as we sang Shackles! Our outfits were terrible but the night was amazing!"

"I am elated to announce that Sadie Robertson and Erica Campbell will be hosting this year's Dove Awards," says GMA President and Executive Director Jackie Patillo. "Sadie is faithfully using her voice and celebrity to share how you can lead a positive and wholesome life, while enjoying your youth. Erica Campbell is a master at commanding the stage and we know she will have all of us in the palm of her hand on October 13."
