Much of our journey through Hebrews has been a journey into the clouds, metaphorically and spiritually. Our high priest has passed through the heavens in order to take us there with him before the Father's throne of grace. But this heavenly mindedness is not without earthly good. In fact, in chapter 13, the author gets into our relationships, our budgets, and even our marriage beds. Now, in verses 7–16 he gets into our kitchen, the church kitchen to be more metaphorically specific. Here we are directed concerning our life as a church—from leadership to what we're feeding on to our worship and fellowship. All the topics we find in those church growth books. Here is teaching for our church's growth in maturity on the journey to our heavenly city.
