KFNW (97.9 FM and 1200 AM) are two Christian radio stations located in Fargo, North Dakota owned and operated by Northwestern College, a Christian college in St. Paul, Minnesota. KFNW-FM concentrates on contemporary Christian music (CCM), while the AM station concentrates on Christian and conservative talk programming, though it also plays CCM music during the overnights.
KFNW is a non-profit radio station, receiving most of its donations and contributions from its listeners and Northwestern College. The FM station is also rebroadcasted on several translators (low-powered rebroadcasters) outside of its main listening area. Both the AM and FM stations are streaming on the Internet.
On June 1, 2007, the transmitter used for KFNW-FM, WDAY-FM "Y94", and KRWK "Rock 102" went on fire putting the stations off the air. KFNW-FM later went on the air on a backup transmitter site at reduced power. On July 2, 2007, Life 1200 rebranded itself as "Faith 1200", keeping the current format of Christian talk and worship music.
Northwestern College also owns adult contemporary Christian outlet KFNL "Life 92.7" in Fargo.
