The phrase “no room at the inn” is often heard during Christmas, but its spiritual weight carries far beyond the nativity scene. In this timely and prophetic episode of the Unshakable podcast, Pastor Ben Cooper reveals how this simple statement speaks directly to the modern world—and challenges us to examine our own hearts.
When the innkeeper turned Mary and Joseph away, he unknowingly echoed a message still ringing out today: “There’s no room for Jesus.” From school systems to governments, media to even religious organizations, Christ is increasingly pushed to the margins. But the greater question is: Have we done the same in our personal lives?
This powerful message explores:
Pastor Ben makes a striking connection between Jesus being wrapped in cloths at birth and again at death—revealing that both moments involved people covered in His presence and His blood. Mary, Nicodemus, and Joseph of Arimathea each represent moments where Jesus was embraced, wrapped, and honored. In the same way, we’re called to wrap the Word within us and be covered in the blood of Christ, not merely follow surface-level religious traditions.
In an age where religious performance is mistaken for biblical faith, this episode is a call to return to Scripture—not rituals. Pastor Ben urges believers to walk in authentic faith, not plastic religion. We’re not called to reject church, but to pursue Bible-based Christianity rooted in the Word, not man-made customs.
So, where is God calling you to make room for Jesus today? What distractions, traditions, or systems have taken His place in your life?
This message will stir your heart, provoke thought, and push you toward true intimacy with Jesus Christ. Whether you’re in the U.S., Ghana, the U.K., the Philippines, or anywhere else around the world, this episode speaks to anyone who wants to move from religion to relationship with Jesus.
