The station signed on in 1993 as W44AR channel 44, owned by a local religious organization, Detroit World Outreach.
The station went silent in July 1999, due to WWJ-TV starting up its digital signal on that channel, but returned to air on channel 18 on February 25, 2000, under TCT ownership. The station was sold, apparently since DWO couldn't afford keeping the station, or enduring any expenses to move the channel.
The station also has a rebroadcaster on channel 27 in Ann Arbor, which uses the callsign W27CJ. That channel was originally W59CA channel 59, a repeater of Saginaw's WAQP, serving Jackson, which was relocated to Ann Arbor in November 2000 and rechristened "W27CJ".
WDWO is one of two stations in the TCT family that does not have an affiliation with the Trinity Broadcasting Network (WDYR-CA in Dyersburg, Tennessee is the other), due to another station carrying TBN programming (in Detroit's case, a local TBN repeater, W66BV).
On cable, WDWO can be seen on Comcast Detroit digital channel 297; it is not seen on Bright House Livonia or Cogeco Windsor.
