KLJT (88.1 FM, "88.1 Worship One") is a non-commercial radio station in St. Louis, Missouri. Owned by Gateway Creative Broadcasting, it broadcasts a contemporary worship music format. It is headquartered alongside its sister stations at studios on Manchester Road in Des Peres, while its transmitter is located on Fairfax Avenue in Arnold.
The station was originally founded in 1987 as KDHX by Double Helix Corporation; it operated as a volunteer-based community radio station which aired specialty music, cultural and public affairs programming. KDHX's operations began to decline in the 2020s, following accusations of mismanagement by current and former volunteers of the station, and a resulting decline in revenue from donations. Amid these issues, the station laid off all its volunteer staff in January 2025 and filed for bankruptcy in March. The station broadcast only automated music programming thereafter, pending the station's future sale.
After a bidding war between two Christian radio broadcasters, Gateway Creative Broadcasting won the right to purchase the station in an auction conducted by the bankruptcy court. Gateway subsequently took over operations of the station in October 2025, with KDHX returning to air under the new call letters KLJT. After airing a transitional simulcast of a rhythmic adult contemporary format from sister station KXBS-HD2, the station flipped to contemporary worship music in January 2026.
