WLJC-TV (channel 65) is a television station licensed to Beattyville, Kentucky, United States, serving the Lexington area as an affiliate of the digital multicast network Cozi TV. The station is owned by local minister Margaret Drake and her ministry, The Hour of Harvest, Inc. WLJC-TV's studios are located on Radio Station Loop north of Beattyville, and its transmitter is located on Tip Top Road.
The station first signed on the air on October 16, 1982, and claims to be the oldest Christian television station in Kentucky. The Hour of Harvest, Inc. also owns two Christian radio stations, Air 1 outlet WLJC-FM and K-LOVE outlet WEBF.

In November 2018, WLJC's main channel began airing Cozi TV programming (which moved from 65.6; that subchannel now airs Start TV).

WLJC-TV shut down its analog signal, over UHF channel 65, in July 2007. The station's digital signal remained on its pre-transition VHF channel 7,[2] using virtual channel 65.
The station was granted a construction permit to increase its effective radiated power from 70 kW to 185 kW.[3]
WLJC-TV's digital signal covers much of eastern and central Kentucky as a result of its relatively high antenna position at 322 meters HAAT and a power level of 185,000 watts on the VHF band. Its primary coverage area includes the Lexington metropolitan area, London, and Hazard. Its fringe contour even reaches areas as far north as Maysville, as far east as Pikeville, as far west as Frankfort, and as far south as the Tennessee state line around Middlesboro.[4]
