This station originally was granted by the FCC as 971003MA in 1998 as a 6,000 watt station at its current location. It was granted the callsign KNSN as a 25,000 watt station in 2001 and played an Urban adult contemporary format. In 2002, the callsign was changed to KCIJ and its format was later changed to Classic Hits, then Hot Adult Contemporary until 2013 when its format changed back to Classic Hits. In 2015 its format changed to Country music, and in March 2015 it adopted its current Christian contemporary format.
