The skin is more than just the covering of our body. It is the body's largest organ, and it has important roles in ensuring the healthy functioning of the entire body. One of the skin's major attributes is that it is semi-permeable. Because of this feature, certain substances can penetrate the skin while other substances are blocked. Therefore, the skin both protects and nourishes the body.

The kidney is an extraordinary organ—in many ways the regulator, the metronome, the keeper of the human body’s delicate equilibrium. On a given day, minute by minute, it purifies the body of toxins it encounters from diet, climate, activity, and injury. It allows us to be and to move in the world. And yet most of us know so very little about these extraordinary vessels nestled in our bodies—and indeed millions of us only really learn about them when they stop working. Nearly a million Americans every year have end stage kidney disease, about 37 million have some form of chronic kidney disease.

Muchos creen que la forma en que tratan a sus cuerpos no tiene relación con su caminar con Dios. No hacen ejercicio regularmente ni comen alimentos saludables. Tampoco es una prioridad. La espiritualidad, sí lo es; la salud física, no. Sutilmente han colocado una pared entre las dos. En Gálatas 5:23, una manifestación del fruto del Espíritu Santo es el dominio propio (Gálatas 5:23). Los cristianos deben exhibir dominio propio en todas las áreas de la vida, incluida la alimentación y la actividad física.
