WMBI is a Class D AM radio station broadcasting on the clear-channel frequency of 1110 kHz in Chicago, Illinois. It is owned and operated by Moody Radio, and it broadcasts from the campus of Moody Bible Institute in Downtown Chicago, and Transmitter facilities and tower located in Addison, Illinois.

The station generally broadcasts teaching programs from Moody Radio and other sources. The station broadcasts during daytime hours only, to protect clear channel stations KFAB in Omaha, Nebraska and WBT in Charlotte, North Carolina. Hours of operation are determined by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC); daytime broadcasting varies monthly with the changes in sunrise and sunset.

WMBI switched from a primarily English-language Christian format to a Spanish-language Christian format on February 6, 2012, making it the first full-time format of its kind on analog radio in Chicago.^[1]
