Jesus and the Cure for Troubled Hearts
Onechurch Seattle
Do you feel that, despite the world’s advice and answers, your life and its circumstances are still out of your depth? Leave your way and your previous solutions — and turn to Jesus. This week, Pastor Filmore continues the “I Am” series by exploring one of Jesus’ most powerful declarations in John 14: “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life.” In a world that tells us peace comes through control, success, or hard work, Jesus tells us that true peace is found only in Him. He is the cure for troubled hearts. He urges us not to let our hearts be troubled because He has gone to prepare...

Jesus and the Hope We Can’t Live Without
Onechurch Seattle
Just because it feels like the end doesn't mean it is. This week, Pastor Filmore walks us through the powerful moment in John 11 where Jesus’ delay leads to resurrection. As we wrestle with grief, unanswered prayers, and lingering disappointments, we’re reminded that Jesus doesn’t just offer resurrection — He is resurrection. He enters our pain, weeps with us, and speaks life into places that feel beyond hope. Maybe what feels like the end is actually just the middle. And maybe Jesus is setting you up not just for a miracle, but for a deeper faith. If you’re in a season of waiting,...

God Within Us
Onechurch Seattle
Do you feel unready, inadequate, or incompetent? Then rejoice! Our lack and weakness is where God’s ability picks up. On this Day of Pentecost, Pastor Filmore reminds us of that powerful moment in Acts 2 where we see the beginning of the New Testament church — the wedding of Christ and the Church. Jesus tells us that He is leaving for our benefit, to leave with us a Helper who will empower our lives. The world urges us to move only when we are sure, but God calls us to move because He is sure. We must not confuse certainty with the faith we truly need. The power and presence of God do not...

Another Sermon About Grace
Onechurch Seattle
Are you mistaking tolerance for Grace? This Sunday, Pastor Filmore invites us into a deeper understanding of what real grace looks like. Drawing from Luke 7, where Jesus dines in the house of a Pharisee, we see that grace isnt encountered through pretense or performacne. We cannot try to manage Jesus and think that we are inviting Him in on our terms and in our atmosphere. True grace is met in honesty and surrender. This story reminds us that the depth of our experience with grace is linked to the depth of our devotion. When we stop seeing Jesus as an observer in our live but...

Jesus and the Love You Need
Onechurch Seattle
Have you ever felt that our culture overpromises and underdelivers? This Sunday, Pastor Filmore continues with Jesus' "I am" statements. In John 10, Jesus describes Himself as the Good Shepherd. He reminds us that there is no one more invested in our well-being than Him. In a world full of noise, manipulation, and people always clawing for our attention, we have a radical offer from Christ: sacrificial love, faithful presence, and transforming grace. He leads us with a heart oriented toward our growth and His glory. Following Jesus reframes everything. We can shift our focus from...

Jesus and the Door That Matters Most
Onechurch Seattle
Have you ever felt like you’re on the outside looking in—longing for peace, purpose, or belonging, but unsure how to access it? This Sunday, Pastor Filmore unpacked Jesus’ powerful statement in John 10: “I am the door.” In a world full of closed doors and false promises, Jesus offers Himself as the only true way into life, freedom, and relationship with God. We were reminded that the ache we carry—the spiritual homesickness we feel—isn’t a flaw, but a sign. It points us back to Eden, where access to God was once open. Through His life, death, and resurrection, Jesus became the...

Jesus and the Light We Need
Onechurch Seattle
Are you leaning more into the truth of Jesus or the truth of the world? This Sunday, Pastor Filmore reminded us that if we’re not walking in the light of Christ, we risk being deceived. John’s words encourage us to follow God and walk away from darkness, knowing that as Christians, there is no morally neutral ground. We’re either being drawn closer to Jesus or pulled away from Him. Scripture tells us that Jesus is the light—not one of many, but the ultimate source of good, truth, and life. In a world that often exalts self and confuses darkness for light, we’re reminded that our...

Joy of the Lord
Onechurch Seattle
When everything feels shaky, the joy of the Lord stands firm and becomes your strength. This Sunday, Pastor Roy reminded us that our true strength comes not from ourselves but from God. In moments of doubt, anxiety, and trial, we are called to lift our eyes from our circumstances and fix them on the source of our strength. Drawing from Nehemiah, we’re reminded that the joy of the Lord is not temporary; it is everlasting. It is our anchor and compass in the hardest moments. We are emboldened with the courage to keep going and the strength to stand firm. As we learn to trust Him...

Jesus and Fulfillment
Onechurch Seattle
After Easter, we’re reminded that the story doesn’t end at the empty tomb — it begins with a person: Jesus. This week, Pastor Filmore kicks off our new series Jesus and ____ by focusing on our deep longing for fulfillment. In environments filled with temporary successes and fleeting pleasures, Jesus offers something greater: Himself. When He says, “I am the Bread of Life,” He’s not just giving advice — He’s inviting us to feast on the only sustenance that truly satisfies. What if your restlessness isn’t a problem to fix, but a hunger pointing you home? What if the...

Easter Sunday: Can We Trust the Resurrection?
Onechurch Seattle
The grave has been defeated. Sin has been paid in full. What will you do with this renewed gift? This Easter Sunday, Pastor Filmore invited us to remember and behold the resurrection. Jesus didn’t rise from the dead to make bad people good, but to bring dead people to life. And that same Spirit that raised Him now lives in us ready to give us power to overcome fear, addiction, shame, and doubt. The resurrection gives us a new hope that everything broken will one day be restored, and every wrong made right. This Easter we are reminded that we can’t live in the in-between. We must decide...
