Steve Corbin walks through the week's theme — that Jesus doesn't just observe our storms, He steps into them — and introduces this week's daily Lectio Divina practice. The weekly practice is simple and embodied: picture yourself in the boat with Jesus during your current storm and pray, 'Jesus, be with me in this.'

Most of us know what it feels like to lie awake running tomorrow's problems in our heads — and know we should stop, but can't. In this episode, Steve Corbin opens Week 6 of Held with a direct look at what Jesus has to say about worry and the grace of the present moment. Drawing from Matthew 6, Psalm 118, James 4, and Exodus 16, this week explores what it means to trust God not just with the big fears, but with the quiet, persistent anxiety about tomorrow. The weekly practice is simple and grounding: when the spiral starts, pause, pray, and name one gift in front of you right now. New episodes every Sunday, Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
