History

WNGR began in 1996 as WNGC 90.5 "The Buzz". After three years of growth, the station became 92.9 WCMD. WCMD was chosen as an acronym for the school's tag line, "Where Christ Makes the Difference." In 2002, under the leadership of Dr. Linwood Hagin and Station Manager Kris Meade, the station became WNGR 95.5 "The Vibe".
