Shepherding the room through teaching

Shelbi Shutt

Diagnosed with Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy in her teens, Shelbi’s unfolding story of steadfast hope and defiant joy has invited thousands across the country to encounter Jesus in the midst of their own limitations and longings. After seven years of serving as a pastor at A Jesus Church in Portland, Oregon, Shelbi, along with her husband Jordy, recently moved to Manhattan, where they now serve at Church of the City New York. 

Tom Gomez

Tom is a disciple of Jesus, husband to Lex, and Pastor living in Topanga Canyon, California. He carries a desire to see young (and old) people wake up to the beauty of God, build hunger for His Presence, and be slowly formed into His image.

Leaders

Shepherding the room through worship

Lexi Gomez

Lexi Gomez is a worship leader based in Topanga, California, whose heart is to cultivate spaces where people encounter the presence of God in freedom and authenticity. Her passion is to see the Church return to a posture of wholehearted, vertical worship—where every sound, lyric, and moment points directly to Jesus.

Jordy Shutt

Jordy serves as the Worship Pastor at Church of the City New York. With a heart for authentic, Spirit-led worship, he leads others in encountering God through song, prayer, and creativity. Jordy is passionate about forming disciples who see worship not just as music, but as a way of life rooted in presence, beauty, and mission. He and his wife, Shelbi, call New York home and love seeing the gospel take root in the heart of the city.

The Cook Theater

We will be hosting the As it is in Heaven Conference 2025 at The Cook Theater. Constructed in 1900 and connected to the original building, The Cook Theater is both large and intimate, a feat fostered by the rich, intricately patterned wood walls and ceiling, outstanding acoustics, and original chandelier. The main soaring theater space is surrounded by rooms that open to the theater on the main level and mezzanine.
