About This Podcast

Fear is not a sign that God is absent. It's an invitation to be held. Held is a daily Catholic podcast walking you through Lectio Divina — ancient prayer made simple. Each episode offers a Scripture passage, a moment of meditation, and space to rest in God's presence. This podcast is the companion to the Held four-volume devotional series by Steve Corbin, available now on Amazon. Whether anxiety feels like a whisper or a weight, you are not alone. New episodes every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
