Hope FM 90.5

A Christian radio station broadcasting on 90.5 FM, operating as the radio ministry of Calvary Chapel Marlton in southern New Jersey. The station was founded following a 1995 pastoral conference at which Chuck Smith, founder of the Calvary Chapel movement, encouraged pastors to use radio as a means of spreading the Christian gospel. Pastor Bill Luebkemann of Calvary Chapel Marlton subsequently developed the vision for the station and brought it to fruition. Programming reflects the evangelical Christian orientation of its parent church, with content designed to provide spiritual encouragement and ministry to the local community. In addition to over-the-air broadcasting, the station offers online audio streaming of its live programming. The station also maintains a community events listings service and provides information about the church's broader ministry activities.
