Sunday Renewal | Christian Podcast, Biblical Encouragement, Spiritual Growth
Welcome to Sunday Renewal — a weekly podcast for anyone who feels spiritually tired, distracted, or distant from God.
Hosted by Ernest Benjamin — a preacher, entrepreneur, husband, and father with nearly two decades in ministry — each episode brings you back to what matters: Scripture, stillness, and the presence of God.
No hype. No performance pressure. Just honest teaching that helps you reconnect with the One who renews you.
Every Sunday, you'll find clarity when life feels chaotic, hope when faith feels fragile, and rest when your soul is weary.
