Шаблон:Primary sourcesШаблон:Infobox radio show Haven Today is a national broadcast Christian radio program.[1] The radio program was founded in 1934 as The Haven of Rest by Paul Myers, who became a radio personality known for Christian ministry.[2] The program has had four hosts: Myers,[3] Paul Evans, Raymond C. Ortlund Sr.,[4] and Charles Morris. The daily broadcast is currently on over 600 stations in North America and overseas.[1][5]
History
Prior to founding his ministry, Paul Myers was a Los Angeles radio personality and station manager. He credited the founding of Haven to hitting rock bottom: kicked out by his wife and passed out on a beach during a drunken bender, he was awakened by a ship's bell; back at his hotel, he opened a Gideon Bible and felt called to ministry.[4] After returning to his wife and family, he was back on Los Angeles airwaves on KHJ (AM), and in 1934 started the radio broadcast The Haven of Rest on KMPC.[4] Myers gave the show a nautical theme, hosting under the name "First Mate Bob" and starting each show with a ships’ air horn, Eight Bells, and an in-house quartet singing 1890 hymn “The Haven of Rest."[4]
Myers retired in 1971 and turned the program over to Pastor Paul Evans, who hosted the show until 1981.Шаблон:Citation needed In 1981, Evans was replaced by Dr. Raymond C. Ortlund Sr., the former long-time Senior Pastor at Lake Avenue Congregational Church in Pasadena, California, where he had broadcast services over KRLA.[6] By 1988, the Haven of Rest was on 275 stations. Ortlund hosted the Haven of Rest radio broadcast from 1981 to 2000.[7] Ortlund also served as a teaching pastor at Mariner's Church in Newport Beach, California in the 1980s.Шаблон:Citation needed In 2008, Ortlund was inducted into the National Religious Broadcasters Hall of Fame for his years of hosting the Haven of Rest.[8]Шаблон:Citation needed In 2000, the program was taken over by Charles Morris, a former news reporter and editor for United Press International who also worked as press secretary for two former U.S. Senators.Шаблон:Citation needed Morris changed the program's name to Haven TodayШаблон:Citation needed and replaced the live in-house quartet with contemporary Christian music in 2001.Шаблон:Citation needed Morris has co-authored several books with Janet Morris, his wife, including Saving a Life, Jesus in the Midst of Success, and Missing Jesus.[1][5] [9]
The Haven of Rest broadcast moved to a new station about every 2 years: KNX (AM), KHJ (AM), KMPC, then the KFI AM studio in Los Angeles, then the NBC Blue Network and NBC Red Network.[1][10][11]
Haven of Rest historical building
In 1941, Paul Myers commissioned a nautical-themed two-story building at 2432 Hyperion Avenue in the Silver Lake District of Los Angeles for the Haven of Rest broadcast.[12] In 1998, the Haven program moved out of the nautical building to Costa Mesa, California, then to Riverside, California. On December 5, 2007 the building was awarded site number 895 on the Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monuments list for its unique architecture. The building has porthole windows, gangway ramp and promenade deck hand rails. The interior studio was equipped with a pipe organ for the program.[13][11]
Present day
Charles Morris' Haven Today program is a mix of Christian music, biblical teachings, interviews and a discussion of current events.Шаблон:Citation needed The program airs 5 days a week for thirty minutes. In addition to the radio program, Haven Today continues to publish a devotional guide called The Anchor Daily, founded by former host Pastor Paul Evans in the 1970s.[5][14]
Haven Quartet
The Haven of Rest Quartet was started in 1934,Шаблон:Citation needed the same year that the radio program began. Referred to on air as the "Crew of the Good Ship Grace," the group performed traditional hymns and gospel songs a cappella or with organ accompaniment. From 1934 until the 1950, all songs were performed live on air.Шаблон:Citation needed With the addition of their own ship-like recording studio and modern tape recorders in the 1950s, the quartet started to record their songs in advance for playback on the show.Шаблон:Citation needed
In the 1980s, the group began to incorporate a more contemporary sound, but it still lagged behind the most popular trends in contemporary Christian and worship music.[15] A name change to The Haven Quartet in 1989 failed to increase the group's recognition beyond its established audience.[15][16] By 2003, the quartet was no longer consistently included on the radio broadcast.[15]
