  1. 2 Rather, we have renounced secret and shameful ways; we do not use deception, nor do we distort the word of God. On the contrary, by setting forth the truth plainly we commend ourselves to everyone’s conscience in the sight of God.

  2. 16 For this reason we never become discouraged. Even though our physical being is gradually decaying, yet our spiritual being is renewed day after day.

    Prior to connecting my faith and spiritual fitness to my physical and mental fitness , I was often discouraged early on in my CrossFit journey by my inability to perform remotely close to the level I knew I was capable of 20-30 years earlier ... "Living my faith" at my box empowers me to "minister by example" and renew and reveal my spiritual strength to myself and others.

  4. Paul credits God for his ministry and acknowledges that it is only through God's mercy. The ministry we are given is to "renounce secret and shameful ways", "not use deception", and "not distort the Word of God." I could be wrong but my thought is that this is our ministry and is written this way so we do not discredit our walk with Christ.
