Pillar Media has completed its acquisition of two FM outlets in the Denver Metro from Max Radio and flipped them to Christian formats, effective Thursday, April 4. KJHM (Jammin' 101.5) becomes a member of Pillar's Star format as "Star 101.5" and KFCO (Flo 107.1) brings Christian Hip Hop to the market as "Kingdom 107.1." Both stations are now local sister channels to Pillar Media's KPOF that has been on the air in Denver since 1928.

Pillar Media Brand Director Matt Stockman said, "We're beyond excited to be able to share music and programming that delivers hope to the amazing people of the Mile High City. We can't wait to connect with this community, cheer on the Nuggets (and all the local teams!) and grow in our faith together through both Denver-centric stations!"

Along with the flip come familiar faces and voices to Denver radio. Former Max Media air talents Tony Valdez (Tony V) and Senen Rodriguez (SLiM) both join the Pillar Media team serving in programming and on-air.

Also transitioning to the Pillar team is previous Max Media Denver President and General Manager Sean Rhoads. Rhoads brings decades of success in Sales and Marketing and will head up Digital Sales for all five Pillar Media stations, also serving as Local Sales Manager for Pillar Media Denver.

Director of Broadcasting Art Garza shared, "Pillar Media is thrilled about the opportunity to spread the message of hope through these two new FM stations. Words can't express our excitement in welcoming new key staff members from the previous stations. With all the circumstances that came together at one time, we believe that God was working behind the scenes and had a plan all along."
