Let go of worried thoughts
During this unprecedented time of stress and concern, we need to be intentional about our thought lives. Dr. Linda shares a prescription for letting go of worried thoughts.
Haven Today has one purpose: to tell the Great Story that’s all about Jesus.
The name “Haven” implies safety – a place of rest for the weary. On the ocean, ships will seek refuge in a harbor because only there will they find shelter from a storm. Over the years, that is exactly how God has used Haven Ministries. Millions of people have found comfort and encouragement in our Christ-focused programs. However, providing comfort isn’t the main reason we’re here.
If you’ve been listening for long you know we talk a lot about the “great story . . . it’s all about Jesus”. This idea is central. It’s the north point on our compass and our message regardless of the topic. The “great story” aspect recognizes that human history – the past, present, and future – is a story that God is writing. We’re all part of it, but ultimately the story isn’t about us – it’s about God.
The main character is Jesus. It begins with him and ends with him. Every story points to him. He’s the hero, the rescuer, and the only true shelter we can run to. When the storms of life seem ready to capsize us there is only truth that gives us hope – Jesus is in the boat with us and he is master of the wind and the waves!
So at Haven, we make one promise. Whatever the day, whatever the topic, we’ll be pointing to Jesus – because he is the one and only Haven of Rest.
Charles Morris is the Speaker and President of Haven Ministries. He brings a rich background to Christian radio from secular media. Starting his career as a broadcast news reporter, he then worked as an editor and bureau chief for United Press International. He also served as press secretary for two former U.S. Senators in addition to owning and managing a radio station.
While in seminary in Philadelphia, he began consulting and then worked as an assistant to the late Dr. James Montgomery Boice before coming to Haven as the ministry’s fourth speaker in 2000. Now as the leader of the 75-year-old radio ministry, Charles is always thinking of ways to lead Christians and non-Christians to Christ – hence the familiar slogan, “Telling the great story … it’s all about Jesus.”
Charles and his wife, Janet, have co-authored several books and have three children and are also the proud grandparents of Charlotte, Gracie, and Ricky.
