The Day Before the Storm | Time, Love, and the Things We Lose

CBS Radio Workshop’s Never Come Monday • John 14:21–26 • Chekhov’s The Cherry Orchard

A warm spring morning in Atchison gives way to gathering storms—both in the sky and in the soul.

In today’s Daybreak, we begin with the haunting CBS Radio Workshop play Never Come Monday, a story that lingers on the fragile assumption that tomorrow will always arrive. From there, we turn to the Gospel of John (14:21–26), where Christ speaks of love made visible through obedience—and the quiet, abiding presence of the Comforter.

Then, in our Monday Play, we step into Anton Chekhov’s The Cherry Orchard, where a world slips gently away while its owners struggle to see what is already lost.

Three reflections. One thread:
What we assume will remain… and what is already passing.

Plus:
– Benedictine College events, including tonight’s Encountering God in Science
– A look ahead at this evening’s storms over Atchison
– And a quiet invitation to begin the day with clarity
