History
In October 2007, Beaver Springs Faith Baptist Church applied to the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for a construction permit for a new broadcast radio station. The FCC granted this permit on January 15, 2010, with a scheduled expiration date of January 15, 2013. The new station was assigned call sign "WFBM" on January 26, 2010. After construction and testing were completed in January 2012, the station was granted its broadcast license on January 23, 2012.
The full-powered station replaced the church's low-power FM station, WFBM-LP, which broadcast from 2004 to January 2012.
