WLVF (930 AM) was a radio station broadcasting a Southern Gospel format. Licensed to Haines City, Florida, United States, the station was owned by Landmark Baptist Church. During its final years, the station served as a simulcast of its sister station, WLVF-FM, which is still broadcasting the Gospel in central Florida.
