Calvary Radio Network is a network of Christian radio stations in the Midwestern United States, broadcasting Christian talk and teaching programs as well as contemporary Christian music.[2] The network is based in Valparaiso, Indiana.

History

In 2008, Calvary Radio Network purchased 26 full powered stations, 27 translators, and one construction permit from CSN International.[3][4] These stations were sold to Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa later that year.[5][6] The network purchased 11 full powered stations and 20 translators back from Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa in 2010.[7]

In 2021, Calvary Radio Network sold WCJL (90.9 FM) at Morgantown to the Educational Media Foundation for $250,000; it is now WBKC.[8] WMJC, WVWG, and WTZI, were also sold in 2021 and 2022.[9][10][11]
