It was a full-time contemporary Christian music radio station, launched by radio personality Bob Anthony, in Middletown, California. With the slogan “The Positive Alternative, Christian Music Radio KCLB 92FM”, the station continued to grow in listeners. In 1986, Dick Jenkins was hired as General Manager.

That same year, Bob Anthony left the station and moved to Oregon, to start a new radio ministry. On September 12, 1988, a 9,000-acre brush fire destroyed KCLB’s main transmitter building on Geyser Peak. The radio station transmitter was relocated to 4,000-foot Mount Saint Helena. As KCLB continued to expand its signal reach, in 1987 the signal could be heard on transmitters in San Rafael, Salinas, and Monterey, California that rebroadcast KCLB’s signal. By 1989, the signal could be heard in Santa Cruz, San Jose, and Los Gatos, California via microwave transmission and television subcarriers. K-Love expanded its reach during the 1990s by purchasing small stations and translators, and repeating its signal. In 1992, K-Love began using satellite technology to expand to locations further away than just northern California.

During the 1990s, K-Love also began to expand its on-air personalities. Also Mike Novak, JD Chandler and Larry Wayne started working air shifts in the late 1990s. During the decade of the 2000s, K-Love went through a period of expansion through the purchase of stations and translators across the United States. In January 2007, the EMF purchased 94.

Shortly after the purchase, a flood hit the WJKL transmitter site that knocked the station off the air for more than a week. In 2002, the EMF moved its headquarters from Sacramento, California, to Rocklin. The new headquarters now housed K-Love, Air1 and Christian Music Planet magazine. On July 15, 2009, K-Love bought 101. In 2001, Christian radio personality Jon Rivers, along with his wife Sherry, became the K-Love Morning Show hosts, and broadcast from their ranch in Texas. After purchasing a radio station in Indianapolis, as of November 2009, the morning show broadcasts from Indianapolis, Indiana.

Into the new decade, K-Love began to purchase more full-power stations in medium and larger markets. In May 2011, K-Love came on the air on WKLV Port Chester, which covers New York City. Trump Plaza building in New Rochelle. In July 2011, K-Love made changes to its on-air staff: Amanda Carroll joined the team in the mid-morning time slot, and the network announced that Lisa Williams and Eric Allen would no longer be hosting the K-Love Morning Show. In December 2013, K-Love presented a Christmas music special for the cable network Up, K-Love Music City Christmas.

The special was hosted by Candace Cameron Bure, and featured performances of Christmas-themed music by various contemporary Christian musicians. In August 2018, after soft-launching it as an online radio station, K-Love launched K-Love Classics—a new classic hits network with a focus on contemporary Christian music from the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s. Chicago flipped from Air1 to be one of the first over-the-air carriers of K-Love Classics. K-Love has a full-time ministry team that processes over 100 phone calls a day from listeners seeking guidance. According to the ministry, the pastors and staff at K-Love pray for over 1,000 prayer requests every day, and on average, intervene in one suicide case per day.
