Nutrition plays a vital role in the well-being and performance of wildland firefighters, shaping their physical and mental resilience in the face of demanding and dangerous conditions. In this episode, we continue the previous discussions around human performance and nutrition. This time, we look into the policy changes for how our wildland firefighters are fed during fire assignments. Joining us is the perfect guest for this conversation. James Shelley is not only well-versed in the world of wildland firefighting, being a wildland firefighter himself; he is also versed in nutrition since he is currently a dietetics student at the University of Alaska. Just this year, he became the owner of Frontier Performance Nutrition, where the goal is to change the game for those living high-performance, time-demanding lifestyles.   James shares his journey from U.S. Marine Vet to firefighting to studying dietetics, discovering his passion for nutrition while working as a dog musher in Alaska. He soon found similarities between sled dogs and wildland firefighters, especially when it comes to nutrition. James highlights the need for individualized nutrition, improved meal quality, and increased communication among firefighters. He dives deep into hydration, electrolyte sources, and the challenges of implementing nutrition initiatives. Addressing the party culture and alcohol consumption among firefighters, James emphasizes personal accountability and the importance of reliable research. Join us as we explore the path to better nutrition and policy changes for wildland firefighters, striving for a healthier and safer future. 

Show Notes: An introduction to the book REAL CHURCH – This week we are changing things up a bit by having a little "church service" as Kep Crabb is joined by two of his good friends, Duncan Sprague and James Shelley. Join us this week for a time of worship and conversation about what church has been and what the church could become.  Order Real Church by Larry Crabb: https://store.largerstory.com/collections/featured/products/real-church-does-it-exist-can-i-find-it Watch the podcast here: https://youtu.be/p0Yljnr3WkA Transcript Kep Crabb: Welcome everybody to the Weekly podcast brought to you by Larger Story called Relational Spirituality where you belong, you become, and you can be known. We're doing something a little different today as we introduce a book that we're going to be covering for the next few months for these podcasts. The book is called Real Church, subtitle is “Does It Exist and Can I Find It?”  So, we are going to have what we call kind of a Larger Story church time today. We're going to do some singing, some talking, some worshiping.   [00:01:28] Worship:   [00:02:37] Kep Crabb: Couple of quick things before we get started here. My dad wrote this book in 2009, actually 2008 is when he wrote this book, Duncan can remember this, but he was right in the middle of drafting the book 66 Love Letters, which I believe is really his kind of Magnum Opus in respect to what he has written.  This book, he had to take a break from writing 66 Love Letters just to clear his mind a little.  One of the things that he says in the book is he authored this book out of some of his frustration or disappointment that he has had with church. He used to say, he said this to me all the time, I would love to give up on church, but I can't because Jesus never did. The book starts really with a question is he says, “Why don't I like to go to? And I don't think I'm alone.”   I think there's a lot of people out there who are disillusioned. Well, I'm joined today by two of my closest friends. I have got James Shelley here, Duncan Sprague here with me.   I really wanted to talk to these two guys specifically about Real Church, what we're gonna be talking about for the next few months in our podcast because they are in a little bit of a different place now when it comes to where they are in respect to church. Dunc and I have had many conversations about our disillusion with church and disappointment that we have had at times with church.  I think James and I have had some of that as well, but James has been involved in his church, his local church now for a decade plus, where it has just been really feeding you. And blessing you in a way that is producing major fruit. And so to get the contrast between these two brothers as we talk about church today a little bit as we introduce this book to you all for this podcast series that's going to be happening in the second quarter of this 2023 year.  I would like to introduce Dunc on this side. Dunc's been a pastor.  And James is a music leader at his church. And we did some music for you a little bit earlier. You get a chance to see some of that. Guys, thanks for joining me today.   [00:04:34] James Shelley: Good to be here.  [00:04:34] Duncan Sprague: Great to be with you.   [00:04:35] Kep Crabb: You guys have both read the book, and I know you've just read it recently and I've gone through it again recently too.  What are some of the things that stand out to you in respect to this book? James, why don't you start as you've just recently read this  and you are just now getting into kind of reading Larry Crabb a bit these days.  [00:04:49] James Shelley: It's been a good journey so far. I mean I can see that where Larry was when he wrote the book, and were already past when he wrote it. And, quite honestly, if today's social media and the things that are going on in this world that I do not know that it's actually got better, on the churches front.

In this episode I have a really frank and honest discussion with James Shelley - a former pastor who grew up in a Christian home. James started questioning basic tenets of the Christian faith as a teenager and always had doubts even as he pursued a career in the ministry. But the doubts eventually led to a belief that proving God, our really any faith system for that matter, was impossible. We talk about the inner conflict that this caused for James and how he has come to terms with it. Could you have an open conversation with someone who has walked away from the faith you hold so dear?
