KCGS was under the ownership of Southland Broadcasting Corporation from 2002 to 2008. In late 2008, the station was sold to the Word and Faith Christian Church Inc. for $300,000.[3] Effective December 21, 2012, the station was sold to Steven & Alice Kiefer, through licensee Kiefer Retirement Services, Inc. Steve Kiefer changed the format to reflect a Christian news/talk formula. Steve hosted a live show each weekday morning covering current news and issues from a Biblical perspective.
