2022 NRB Media & Special Service Awards were announced today. WMIT/Ashville (The Light FM) was named Radio Station of the Year.
The Light FM GM John Owens told HisAir, “With all that is going on in the world today, it’s a blessing to be able to come alongside our listeners and provide the hope and encouragement found in Christ through The Light FM. I’m proud of how intentional our team is in fulfilling our mission of leading as many people as possible into a relationship with Christ.”
