After five years of preparation, 91.3 WCSG-FM (standing for “College and Seminary of Grand Rapids”) went on air on June 9, 1973, with an easy listening and fine arts format. In 1981, WCSG’s programming changed to a primarily Christian format and three years later, the station began broadcasting inspirational programming and music twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. Today, 91.3 WCSG-FM is "the most listened-to Christian radio station in West Michigan", providing contemporary inspirational Christian music and programming to the local market and streaming “live” on the Internet. The station is a community outreach ministry of Cornerstone University.

Awards and honors

The station received a special recognition at the National Association of Religious Broadcasters convention in February 2001, when Focus on the Family selected WCSG from among 987 U.S. radio stations for its "Station of the Year Award". Then, in April 2001, the Gospel Music Association nominated WCSG for a Dove Award for Station of the Year.

This year, R&R Magazine recognized WCSG as 2007 Christian Station of the Year, Markets 26-100.

Vision

WCSG is known as an inspirational format leader among Christian radio stations nationwide. Through its music and programming, and with its outreach events, its staff hope individuals receive a greater understanding of who God is and how they might better live for and serve Him.
