What if the reason you feel distant from God… isn’t because He moved—but because you forgot where He lives?This Sunday, Pastor Joey Cook shares a powerful message titled “YOU Are the Temple,” tracing the story of God’s presence from the tabernacle in the wilderness, to the temple in Jerusalem, to Jesus—and finally, to you.The Bible tells one consistent story: God has always desired to dwell with His people. And through Jesus, what once lived in a tent now lives in the believer.If you’ve ever asked, “God, where are You?”—this message will challenge everything you thought you knew about His presence and awaken you to the reality that you carry it.Resources & Next Steps: ❌ Scripture Referenced: Exodus 25:8, Exodus 40:34–35, Exodus 13:21–22, 1 Kings 8:27, John 1:1–3, John 1:14, John 14:16–17, 1 Corinthians 3:16, 1 Corinthians 6:19, Colossians 1:27, Romans 8:11❌ Visit Us: www.citychurch.tv❌ Follow us on Instagram: @citychurchx

What if the reason you feel stuck spiritually isn’t because you’re not trying hard enough… but because you’re trying to climb something God never designed you to climb?This Sunday, Pastor Joey Cook shares a powerful message titled “Why Trying Harder Isn’t Working,” unpacking the purpose of God’s law through passages like Exodus 20, Matthew 5:17, and 2 Corinthians 12:7–10.In this sermon, we discover that the law was never meant to be a ladder we climb to reach God—but a mirror that reveals our need for Him. Instead of calling us to try harder, Scripture invites us to trust deeper, as Jesus fulfills what we never could.If you’ve ever felt stuck, exhausted, or like you’re not measuring up, this message will remind you that God doesn’t meet you in your performance—He meets you in your weakness.SCRIPTURES IN THIS MESSAGEExodus 20: 12-17 (ESV)Matthew 5:17 (ESV)Galatians 2:21 (ESV)2 Corinthians 12:7–10 (ESV)Exodus 34: 6,8 (ESV)

What do you do when the evidence doesn’t point to a stolen body… but a risen Savior?This Sunday, Pastor Joey Cook unpacks the Easter message in a sermon titled “The Missing Person.” Using Luke 24 and a series of resurrection “clues,” this message explores how the cross, the empty tomb, the testimony of Scripture, the witnesses, and the mission of Jesus all point to one breathtaking truth: Jesus is alive.
