Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

89.5 KVNE, The Voice of Encouragement, plays Jesus music that has its roots in the sounds of pop and rock music. Upbeat, contemporary Christian songs with strong messages and real DJs sharing life between the songs. We’re non-commercial and listener-supported. Fuzión 102.3/103.1, The Voice of Harmony, plays upbeat, contemporary Christian songs in Spanish with strong messages and real DJs sharing life between the songs. We're non-commercial and listener-supported. Fuzión 102.3/103.1, La Voz de La Armonia, tiene música de Jesús en español con ritmos modernos. Nuestra música tiene un toque alegre con mensajes cristianos profundos y locutores que comparten sus vidas entre canción y canción. Somos una emisora no-comercial, financiada por los recursos de nuestros oyentes. Lift 91.3, The Voice of Worship, plays soft, contemporary Christian music and worship songs that set a coffee-house mood with acoustic versions of familiar songs. We’re non-commercial and listener-supported. The Well 94.3/95.3, The Voice of Truth, is decidedly Bible-focused. We want to encourage listeners across all of East Texas to go back to the Bible and deepen their walks with the Lord through Bible-teaching radio. My Evergreen Radio provides Christmas music for year-round listeners and December-only sticklers.
