CSN Radio is a Christian radio network based at flagship station 89.9 KAWZ in Twin Falls, Idaho. The network feeds over 350 FM translators and 59 full-power radio stations.[1] CSN can be heard across the United States, including Alaska and the Hawaiian Islands.[2] It uses the slogan "Where God's Word is Heard."

CSN Radio airs a variety of Christian talk and teaching programs with some Christian contemporary music.[3] CSN is a non-profit organization. Its stations are non-commercial and depend on listener donations for support.

History

KAWZ began broadcasting on April 3, 1988 (Easter Sunday), with Pastor Mike Kestler as its founder.[4][5][6] The network was launched on April 26, 1995, broadcasting Christian radio over satellite from KAWZ in Twin Falls.[7] The first satellite-fed translator to begin receiving the network from KAWZ was in Yucca Valley, California, and within six months the network had dozens of translators.[7][4] It was originally known as the Calvary Satellite Network.[4]

By 1999, the network had grown to include 153 stations and translators,[8] and by 2004, it had grown to approximately 400 stations and translators across the United States.[9]

In 2007, an agreement was reached between the Twin Falls, Idaho, based network and parties associated with Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa where the Twin Falls, Idaho, based network kept 424 of the network's 457 stations and translators, but could no longer use Calvary Chapel branding.[10][11] Most of the stations received by the parties associated with Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa were sold to the Calvary Radio Network the following year.[12]

Programming

National religious programs heard on CSN include: A New Beginning with Greg Laurie, Jay Sekulow Live, Family Talk with James Dobson, Love Worth Finding with Adrian Rogers, Thru the Bible with Dr. J. Vernon McGee, The Urban Alternative with Tony Evans, Truth For Life with Alistair Begg, Washington Watch with Tony Perkins and Turning Point with David Jeremiah.[13]

Board members

Board members of the CSN International, Inc. (CSN Radio), are Pastor Mike Kestler and Ariel Kestler. Mike Kestler is pastor of The River Christian Fellowship, a nondenominational church in Twin Falls.[14]
