This morning on Chesterton Radio’s Daybreak, we begin in the quiet light of Atchison, Kansas and follow one extraordinary thread through Gospel, mystery, childhood wonder, and ordinary life:
What if the Comforter does not remove the darkness… but walks beside us through it?
Today’s episode explores Christ’s haunting words from John 16:
“It is expedient to you that I go…”
From there, the conversation moves through:
• today’s Chesterton Radio Morning Prayer
• the new Sherlock Holmes story The Comforter of Montague Street
• the magical melancholy of Pooh and the Expotition into Elfland
• finals week and spiritual life at Benedictine College
• friendship, imagination, suffering, courage, and unseen grace
Along the way:
London fog drifts through Baker Street…
Pooh wanders toward impossible hills…
students study beneath the Kansas night…
and the hosts reflect on why absence, mystery, and even sorrow can sometimes deepen love instead of destroying it.
Warm, thoughtful, funny, literary, and deeply human — this is a morning show for listeners who still believe ordinary life is filled with hidden worlds.
Broadcast as if live from Atchison, Kansas.
