Communion at Home – Unshakeable: A Daily Christian Devotional Podcast
What if the most sacred rituals of our faith weren’t confined to church buildings? What if communion—that profound moment of remembrance and connection—could happen anywhere? In this soul-stirring episode of Communion at Home, Reverend Ben Cooper invites you into a radical rethinking of where and how we break bread together.
Recorded in London, England, this powerful five-minute devotional draws deeply from Scripture, including Matthew 5:9: “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.” Reverend Cooper gently guides listeners in preparing their hearts and using simple elements—whether bread, juice, or wine—to participate in this ancient practice from the comfort of home, workplace, or any setting.
The biblical foundation for this practice stretches back to Exodus 12-13, where God first instituted the Passover outside temple walls as a public, communal act of faith and remembrance. This historical insight reminds us that communion is not bound by buildings or formal ceremonies. As Reverend Cooper emphasizes, “You are the church; you are the body.” This liberating truth encourages believers to reclaim the sacredness of communion wherever they are.
Whether you are taking communion for the first time or rediscovering its spiritual power, this devotional invites you to experience God’s grace in a fresh and accessible way.

- Matthew 5:9 — “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.”
- Exodus 12-13 — The institution of Passover, commemorated through communion, as a public act of remembrance and faith beyond temple walls.
