KVTT is a Christian radio station located in Dallas, Texas. It is owned and operated by Covenant Educational Media (a non-profit entity) and broadcasts on 91.7 FM. As a non-profit, it hosts an annual fund-raising drive to remain on the air.

KVTT features evangelical christian teaching and talk show programs such as Jack Hayford, Dr. Gary and Barbara Rosberg, Paul Sheppard, and Greg Laurie. The morning show is "The Journey" with Tom Dooley and co-hosted by KVTT Program Director Bryan Reeder.

In the past, the station hosted several youth oriented music programs including Power Mix, Youth Wake (later Lighthouse 21) and Spin 180. Each program featured Christian Rock and Rap. The shows later became the basis for station KVRK-FM (better known as 89.7 Power FM).

Lighthouse 21

Lighthouse 21 (L21) was a multimedia Christian ministry in the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex that began in 1986 and came to an end in 2002.

The ministry began as Youth Wake, a Saturday night program on 91.7 FM KVTT which targeted the area youth. The show featured music from a mixture of Christian Rock and Rap artists along with an hour long youth talk show format at the end of the four hour program.

The show was hosted by [http://897powerfm.com/personal_rick.html Rick Walker] , who was later joined by co-host Ted Blair. The show later became Lighthouse 21 and grew into a multimedia ministry with radio, television, Internet chat and live Internet streaming.

In the late 1990's Lighthouse 21 offered a "triple-cast" with both radio and television programing, alongside Internet chat and live Internet streaming. The radio program aired on KVTT-FM from 1986 to 2000, before moving to 89.7 FM KTPW (later KVRK) which was a sister station to KVTT at the time.

The television programing was aired on Channel 52 KFWD-TV from 1999 to 2000 and featured segments from the radio program as well as Christian music videos.

Both radio and television programs were streamed online at [http://www.lighthouse21.com lighthouse21.com]
