Show Notes:40. Benjamin Vrbicek — Reflections on the Pursuit of Writing

Writing is a calling; a calling always requires faithfulness. It’s so easy to say you want to be a writer. It’s an entirely different thing to do it with faithfulness, to leave the comfort of home and follow God to a place yet to be told.

Benjamin is that kind of writer and he has my respect for it. Writing hasn’t always been easy and he isn’t afraid to acknowledge it. His honesty is refreshing and his writing reflects his humility in the best of ways.

Through his writing, Benjamin continues to serve the church by addressing some of the most important topics that often publishers and other authors find difficult to address.

Benjamin is worth your attention.

  • In one month, I submit the draft of my new book, A More Physical Faith, to the publisher, NavPress. My first notes for this book go back to 2024. I share more personally in this book than anything I’ve ever written. Some people write and publish faster, but books usually represent at least 2 to 3 years of work for me. Just wanted to share this milestone. The book won’t be out until next year.
  • Joyeuse Fête des Mères à la meilleure maman qui soit. On t'aime et on a de la chance de t'avoir. Partons en France !
  • Happy early birthday to myself.
  • Hard to beat.
  • There’s a new tour open at Notre Dame in which you can take the stairs up through the bell tower to the roof. Pretty spectacular.
  • Back from France.
  • Tonight we lost my bird dog, Millie.

For thirteen years I followed her through woods and fields chasing pheasant and quail. She was there to welcome both of our kids home from the hospital. When I set up my writing LLC, I named it A Desk and A Dog because my dream was to write with her lying on the chair in my office. She did just that for years, resting beside me as I worked and helping me write several books.

There’s a reason so many country songs mention the bird dog they lost.

Tonight we lost my bird dog, Millie.

For thirteen years I followed her through woods and fields chasing pheasant and quail. She was there to welcome both of our kids home from the hospital. When I set up my writing LLC, I named it A Desk and A Dog because my dream was to write with her lying on the chair in my office. She did just that for years, resting beside me as I worked and helping me write several books.

There’s a reason so many country songs mention the bird dog they lost.

She was the best.
