CHJX-FM is a Canadian radio station, broadcasting 24 hours a day at 99.9 FM in London, Ontario. The station airs a Christian music format branded as Faith FM. CHJX-FM broadcasts a number of evangelistic teaching programs, Christian music in the midday and drive time, and Christian contemporary music during the evening.

Formerly branded as Grace FM and later Inspire FM, CHJX is part of the Sound of Faith Broadcasting Group, with sister stations in Kitchener, Brantford and Woodstock. Faith FM is listener supported and depends upon some local advertising and donations to fund its operations. The studios were located at 254 Adelaide Street South and the transmitter is high atop the tallest building in downtown London - One London Place.

Sound of Faith Broadcasting received CRTC approval to broadcast on the FM dial at 105.9 MHz in 2002.^[1]

On April 10, 2006, Sound of Faith was denied to increase CHJX-FM's power to 500 watts, frequency change to 98.1 MHz, and decrease in antenna height.^[2] Sound of Faith would later apply to broadcast at 99.9 MHz with an effective radiated power of 500 watts with a directional antenna system with signal primarily towards the east, to protect other stations that broadcast on or near 99.9 MHz, including CFGX-FM in Sarnia, CKFM-FM in Toronto, WKKO in Toledo, Ohio and possibly WXKC in Erie, Pennsylvania. This application was approved on February 2, 2009;^[3] however, CHJX-FM would not begin broadcasting at 99.9 MHz until August 31, 2012.

On August 1, 2014 CHJX-FM moved to new studios at 120 Wellington Street in "Old South" London. The station is managed by Dave Wettlaufer and the broadcast engineer is Dave Currie. Sound of Faith's Executive Director is Dave MacDonald who is based in Kitchener Ontario. Live programming includes A Faith Filled Morning with Pastor Al from 5:30 AM to 8:30 AM, Mid-day with Bianca from 12:15 PM to 2:00 PM and Heading Home with Marion from 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM
