## Resource

Faith Ventures welcomes Dr. Benjamin Long, sleep physician, pediatrician, and author of The Sleep Habits Journal: Practices, Prayers, and Devotions to Ease Your Sleepless Nights . Dr. Long grew up watching his grandfather practice pediatrics and his father live a fully bivocational life — Air Force pilot by day, minister by calling — and he has spent his career building a similarly integrated vocation: physician in the clinic, seminary student at the desk, and theologian-in-formation across both. The Faith Ventures Podcast is part of the Christians For Liberty Network , a project of the Libertarian Christian Institute .
