Onechurch SeattleAnother Sermon About Grace 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. Wh...2025-06-0242 minOnechurch SeattleJesus and the Love You NeedHave 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 fo...2025-05-2641 minOnechurch SeattleJesus and the Door That Matters MostHave 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 Hi...2025-05-1939 minOnechurch SeattleJesus and the Light We NeedAre 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 th...2025-05-1240 minOnechurch SeattleJoy of the LordWhen 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...2025-05-0535 minOnechurch SeattleJesus and FulfillmentAfter 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? W...2025-04-2838 minOnechurch SeattleEaster Sunday: Can We Trust the Resurrection?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 ri...2025-04-2138 minOnechurch SeattleGood Friday: It Is FinishedHappy Easter weekend from our Onechurch family! 2025-04-1935 minOnechurch SeattlePalm Sunday: The Way to Peace Is your peace only as strong as your circumstances? This Palm Sunday, Pastor Levi reminds us that the peace Jesus offers isn’t shaken by shifting seasons or unmet expectations. It is built on His unwavering presence and mercy. We are taken through the chapter of Luke where Jesus enters the city of Jerusalem the crowd cries “Hosanna” and then days later are seen chanting “Crucify Him” Too often, we tie peace to external outcomes; answered prayers, success, comfort, or control. But when things shift, so does our sense of stability. Jesus wept over a city...2025-04-1433 minOnechurch SeattleGratitude | Soul Care: Week Six Are you living in entitlement or in gratitude? In the final week of our Soul Care series, Pastor Filmore uses the story in Luke to remind us that living with gratitude brings not only healing for our circumstances but restoration for our souls. As Christians who are growing in our walk with God, it's easy to forget the grace we’ve been given. When we receive blessings and answers to our prayers, we can unknowingly shift from relying on the source -- Jesus -- to feeling entitled to the outcome we desire. Scripture on the oth...2025-04-0738 minOnechurch SeattleHealing Wounds | Soul Care: Week FiveAre you carrying wounds that still feel sensitive, shaping how you react to the world around you? This week, in the fifth message of our Soul Care series, Pastor Filmore Bouldes unpacks the power of healing from soul wounds. Too often, we carry pain from the past — whether from family, friendships, failures, or even our own choices — that affects how we live today. When left unhealed, these wounds turn everyday life into a trigger, keeping us stuck in cycles of bitterness, anxiety, or insecurity. But there is good news: Jesus doesn’t just forgive — He heals. H...2025-03-3139 minOnechurch SeattleOvercoming Sin Cycles | Soul Care: Week Four Are you living in authentic joy or been finding yourself within unhealthy cycles? This week, in our Soul Care series, Pastor Filmore Bouldes challenges us to break free from sin cycles and build a game plan for victory. Through God's grace, we are empowered to live beyond the destructive patterns that hold us back. Pastor Filmore reminds us that the battle is not just about willpower, but about walking in the victory Jesus has already secured through His death, resurrection, and the gift of the Holy Spirit. This message offers practical steps to help us ov...2025-03-2437 minOnechurch SeattleThe Healing Power of Repentance | Soul Care: Week ThreeIs your soul healthy? Are you tapping into the healing power of repentance? This week, continuing our Soul Care series, Pastor Filmore Bouldes explores the sickness of the soul and how we can find true healing in Jesus. In a world that tells us we’re fine just as we are, Jesus calls us to something greater—a life aligned with Him because we are made for so much more. Repentance, often misunderstood, is not about appeasing God but about realigning our hearts with His. Pastor Filmore reminds us that hidden sins—those things we often justify—can accu...2025-03-1739 minOnechurch SeattleOvercoming Fear | Soul Care: Week TwoContinuing our Soul Care series, this week, Pastor Filmore Bouldes addresses fear. Building on last week’s message about discovering our true identity in Christ, we explore how to combat the anxiety that unsettles our souls. Are you feeling fear or anxiety? You're not alone. In this powerful sermon, we're reminded that the most frequent command in scripture is 'fear not.' Through firsthand experience and the story of Peter walking on water, three core practices are explained: Remembering God's presence, refocusing on Jesus, and releasing control through prayer. There is peace in the storm....2025-03-1042 minOnechurch SeattleOut With the Old — In With the New | Soul Care: Week One Who do you get your identity from? Are you trying to fit into what society tells you, or are you listening to the voice of God and what He says about you? This week, Pastor Addison kicks off our new series, Soul Care, focusing on the foundation of our soul — our identity. Reflecting on Jesus' baptism in Matthew 3, we are reminded that our identity comes from who God says we are, not from our external achievements or people's opinions. In a world full of false identities and confusion, we are reminded that through the sacrifice of Jesus, we...2025-03-0330 minOnechurch SeattleYou’re Probably Not Great at ThisHow do you handle conflict? What if we saw conflict resolution not as a burden, but as a byproduct of what Jesus came to do? As we enter Week Four and wrap up our February Relationship Series, Mixed Signals, Pastor Filmore invites us to rethink how we approach conflict resolution as Christians. The world often views conflicts as battles meant to be won, but God calls us to a different approach—one rooted in peace, forgiveness, and the posture of our hearts. Jesus' life and the teachings from the Bible show us that disagreements are ne...2025-02-2436 minOnechurch SeattleMore Than "I Do"How do you define marriage? Is it about love, compatibility, or personal fulfillment? Or is there a deeper purpose behind this commitment? As we enter Week Three of our February Relationship Series, Mixed Signals, Pastor Addison invites us to explore the contrast between culture’s view of marriage and God’s vision. Marriage, as God designed it, is more than a pursuit of happiness or a perfect match — it is a living testament to His faithfulness, mirroring Christ’s love for the Church. It’s not just a contract but a covenant, a sacred commitment that tells a greater...2025-02-1750 minOnechurch SeattleThe Naked TruthWelcome back to Mixed Signals, our February Relationship Series. How would you define sex? How do those around you define sex? In a culture flooded with information about sex, relationships, and identity, God brings clarity. In this week's message, we dive into the one of the most avoided but necessary conversations in the church — God's design for sex. Pastor Filmore highlights that where sexual confusion thrives, sexual chaos follows, but God's blueprint leads to freedom and flourishing. Created within the purpose of deeper intimacy within the covenant of marriage, delight, and procreation, we are...2025-02-1036 minOnechurch SeattleBefore You Say "I Do"Welcome to our February Relationship Series: Mixed Signals. In a world full of confusion about dating, sex, and marriage, God brings clarity. If we don’t have a proper understanding of marriage, we won’t take the right approach to dating. In this message, Pastor Filmore helps us explore what it means to date with wisdom, purpose, and biblical guidance — because dating well leads to marrying well. From Jesus' words in Matthew 19 to practical insights on character, chemistry, and community, we unpack the essential elements of Godly relationships. Are we dating to evaluate or just passin...2025-02-0339 minOnechurch SeattleGod & the StormLife can feel like a series of unrelenting storms, tossing us around, testing our resolve, and leaving us searching for stability. But what if, in the chaos, we could anchor ourselves to the One who stands with us in our pain? When we're weighted down by hardships and shaken up by trials, it’s natural to pray for the storm to pass quickly. We seek calm waters and solid ground. Jesus' disciples — experienced fishermen — were caught in a fierce sea storm on their way to Capernaum, but as fear overwhelmed them, they made a pivotal decision: invite Jesus i...2025-01-2739 minOnechurch SeattleBeing Available for GodAre you available for the restoration God wants to do in your life? This week, Pastor Levi Smith reminds us of the power being available to God in the midst of the impossible, diving into the story of Jesus feeding the five thousand. As Jesus sits on the mountainside with His disciples, He looks out at the thousands following Him. In a moment of testing, He asks Philip a question He already had the answer to — not to shame him, but to invite him into a miracle How often have you felt like you d...2025-01-2044 minOnechurch SeattleLess of Me & More of HimOn Monday, January 13th, 2025, Onechurch began a collective journey: seven intentional days of fasting. But why fasting? Why has our church chosen to dedicate this week to such a practice? And why should it matter to you in your contemporary, fast-paced life? In this inspiring message, Pastor Filmore thoughtfully unpacks the biblical foundation of fasting, its relevance for today, and its dynamic in transforming not only our spiritual lives but also our daily priorities. More than a tradition, fasting is a powerful opportunity to: Align your decisions with your deepest intentions for growth and...2025-01-1540 minOnechurch SeattleGod AwarenessHappy New Year from our Onechurch Family! To start 2025, we had the honor and joy of welcoming Pastor Levi Marychurch from New Zealand. Walking through the story of Samson, Pastor Levi explores with us the vital difference between self-awareness and God-awareness, reminding us that Samson’s life is "a cautionary tale of the sense of God's presence in our lives." While self-awareness is valuable for navigating relationships and social environments, Samson’s journey reminds us that true strength and purpose come from prioritizing God-awareness. Join us as we explore practical ways to value, protect, and purs...2025-01-0847 minOnechurch SeattleWhat's a Baby in the Manger Got to Do With Me?Merry Christmas from the Onechurch family to yours!

From the deep thirst for meaning to the weight of shame, Jesus offers the ultimate solution: living water. Whether you’ve ever felt dissatisfied in life, burdened by guilt, or caught in cycles that never satisfy, this message is for you. Through offering the Samaritan woman not just physical water but a complete spiritual renewal, Jesus even broke through cultural barriers. Pastor Filmore guides us as we learn abou...2024-12-1144 minOnechurch SeattleJoy That Doesn't FadeOur lives are full of changing circumstances, but what if your joy could remain steady — unfluctuating — regardless of the state of your present? For example, have you ever felt like your influence was waning? Or perhaps you've experienced seasons of disappointment and doubt? Join us as we delve into the life example of John the Baptist, a man whose heart was fully anchored in God’s plan, rejoicing not in personal gain but in seeing Jesus exalted. In this message, Pastor Filmore helps us uncover the power of humility and the gift of gratitude, discovering how a G...2024-12-0441 minOnechurch SeattleSuccess Is Not EnoughHave you ever felt like you had it all, only to realize something was missing? There's an inadequacy found with success in providing ultimate fulfillment. Even a highly respected, educated, and successful figure like Nicodemus, a Pharisee and teacher of Israel, recognized his spiritual emptiness. His resume was competitive and his credentials impressive, yet what choice did he make? Sharing from John chapter three, Pastor Filmore walks us into the context surrounding the most famous verse in the Bible. Success, wealth, power, and social status could not satisfy Nicodemus' heart — so he sought Jesus. Jo...2024-11-2737 minOnechurch SeattleWhat Happens When We Give?Money – a topic that never exits conversations in culture. It touches each one of our lives. And if it’s at the forefront of your thoughts in the morning or at night, you’re not alone. That said, we serve a God who wants the best for us. When it comes to money, fear & anxiety have no space in God’s plan for our lives. His will for our life is peace. But why does God care so much about money? Scripture abounds with words concerning it; even Jesus mentioned this during his ministry: “For where your treasure is...2024-11-2042 min

Jesus isn’t our interior designer. This weekend at Onechurch Pastor Filmore Bouldes resumed our study through the Gospel of John. At the beginning of the second chapter, we find Jesus providing and bringing joy through the miracle of turning water into wine at a wedding. As we read through John 2:13-22, we now see Jesus with a different emotional response due to what He observes. In a powerful display of divine authority, Jesus cleanses the Temple in Jerusalem. Outraged by the commercialization of God’s sacred space during...2024-11-1336 minOnechurch SeattleWhy Moving Is So ExhaustingPastor Pradeepan Jeeva from Kalos Church in Bellevue, WA spent this past weekend strengthening Onechurch with his message. As our church and lives grow, roots and direction can cross our minds. Seattle, in itself, is a city full of movement. Reading from John 12, Psalm 92, and Mark 11:15-17, Pastor Pradeepan shares an understanding of what it means to grow. A seed - for it to develop - needs to be first planted. Soil, specifically good soil, is necessary. Though commitment may be a major topic, when we place our roots in the house of...2024-11-0635 minOnechurch SeattleInto the WorldSalt holds its most impact once it leaves the saltshaker. Joining us all the way from Collective Church in Malaysia, in this special message we held the honor of welcoming our friend, Pastor Kevin Loo, and his family to Seattle. As we have been recently studying the Book of John, Pastor Kevin beautifully continued the conversation. At the turning point of Jesus preparing for his departure, we are reminded of disciples who, to be described most honestly, were panicking. At one point these same disciples were excited about this King, who would bring deliverance to t...2024-10-2337 minOnechurch SeattleIt's Okay to Be AndrewPublic recognition is not synonymous with Godly reward. We just marked our third week at Nippon Kan Theatre, where we continued our series in the Book of John — a series which both comforts and challenges us. This past weekend Pastor Filmore walked us through the unique store of a man who didn't search the spotlight yet still found impact within God's work. Andrew, first introduced on the basis of being Peter's brother, was one of the first disciples to follow Jesus. Biblical and world history has never forgotten Peter, but through examining John 1:35-42 we lear...2024-10-1635 minOnechurch SeattleThe God You Can KnowThis past weekend, twenty-six congregation members entered a new chapter in their faith walk. Onechurch's first Baptism Sunday marked our second week at Nippon Kan Theatre. The story God is writing in Seattle is visible. Before stepping into baptisms, Pastor Filmore kicked off a new series of messages based on The Book of John. The Apostle John, one of the twelve disciples and credited for writing this book, gives us his account of the ministry, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. John was one of Jesus' closest friends and through his writing he communicates his purpose very c...2024-10-0940 minOnechurch SeattleHeaven Is Not Where Good People GoOnechurch spent this past weekend in celebration. Sunday, September 29th, 2024 marked a major milestone for our church: Grand Opening! As the first message from our new venue, Nippon Kan Theatre, Pastor Filmore Bouldes shares a word of grace, hope, and reconciliation. We often tend to think that our value before God is predicated on how well we behave or what we know. Our minds are filled with our merits and accomplishments. Many of us like to live as if God grades our lives on a curve. Not only that, but we set other people as o...2024-10-0237 minOnechurch SeattleThere's More for You HereGod’s new mission in your life brings changes, but people are being prepared to walk with you. This week, Pastor Filmore dives into Acts 9, where we find the life-changing direction of a man named Paul. Formally called Saul, this man turned out to be one of the most important apostles in Christianity, credited for writing the majority of the New Testament. That said, this same person used to kill the followers of the Savior who he ended up dedicating his life towards. This message lays out Paul’s story of change. Paul was persecuting believer...2024-09-2537 minOnechurch SeattleYou Need PowerDon't live in that fear forever. This past Sunday, Pastor Filmore reminded us of the empowerment we hold amid fear, reading from Acts 1:4-8. After being crucified and resurrected, Jesus appeared to his disciples who were found in fear and doubt. But before leaving, Jesus counteracted that fear and doubt. He promised His disciples they would receive the Holy Spirit and, through the Holy Spirit, receive power. Do you remember the first time you felt fear? The first time consciously feeling afraid? We may have fears we still carry with us from our pa...2024-09-1835 minOnechurch SeattleThe Miracle Includes MeMany people want to witness a miracle, but fewer want to work for it. In this episode, Pastor Filmore shares the story of Lazarus, covering John 11:38-44. We find Jesus, powerful as He is, choosing to involve others in this miracle. From Martha rolling the grave's stone aside, to others unwrapping the once-dead Lazarus' graveclothes, this miracle required work. Jesus didn't need others to perform this miracle, but Lazarus' full freedom didn't happen until people got involved. We need both Jesus and the church. This message encourages us to look beyond ourselves and no...2024-09-1136 minOnechurch SeattleThe Devil Doesn't Live HereHolding anger makes a bed for the devil, but forgiveness leads to his eviction. This past Sunday, Pastor Filmore broke down Ephesians 4:25-32. Written by Paul, we find a letter addressing and calling the church of Ephesus towards unity. Specifically, we find Paul calling out one emotion that has led to broken unity: anger. To grow close to God means growing close to one another, but we see how one emotion can break havoc in our relationships. One emotion can give "a foothold to the devil." That doesn't have to be the route our church ch...2024-09-0431 minOnechurch SeattleDon't Sell Your BirthrightDon’t trade what you want most for what you want now. Don’t take the stew. Brother to Jacob and descendant of Abraham, Esau gave up all the promises tied to his birthright within a short amount of time. Bag fumbled. This past Sunday, Pastor Filmore walked us through Genesis 25 where we find firstborn Esau hungry and tired from being out all day. Looking for something to quickly satisfy him, he ultimately sells his birthright to his younger brother Jacob. And what did that sale include? A meal of stew. Have...2024-08-2840 minOnechurch SeattleWhen Is God With Us?The grace of God meets you where you are, but it doesn't keep you where you are. This past Sunday, Pastor Filmore taught from the Old Testament story of Elijah, found in 1 Kings 19. We find a prophet who, even amidst holding great faithfulness, is afraid. A man who has confronted hundreds of people yet is still brought to fear by one person. A fear and spiritual low so severe that it takes him to the wilderness where he asks God to take his life. The same man who asked for rain from God is now as...2024-08-2138 minOnechurch SeattleRain Is on the WayFaith hears the rain before it sees the cloud. On Sunday, Pastor Filmore concluded our “Monday to Sunday: Living with Everyday Faith” sermon series covering the book of James, walking us through practical faith and using James’ writing to influence lived-out every day faith. In this message, covering James chapter five, we are encouraged to build faith like the Old Testament Prophet Elijah. When we see drought, God sees a very different picture. When we see needs within our own lives, our families, and our city, prayer has power to bring rain. Pastor Filmore lays out thr...2024-08-1435 minOnechurch SeattleThe Christian AtheistThe existence of faith in our lives doesn't equate to faith changing our lives. Sunday marked week seven of our “Monday to Sunday: Living with Everyday Faith” sermon series, covering the book of James. As we continue, we study chapter four where James addresses communities experiencing spiritual compromise: having a foundation of faith but living and planning for a future as if God didn't exist. Communities where there was the belief in the authority of scripture, the Holy Trinity, and a divine future, but their alignment with God wasn't matching it. In this episode...2024-08-0738 minOnechurch SeattleHow to Stay Faithful to JesusGod’s best is the best for us — but how often do we get stuck trying to please people rather than God? We continue our “Monday to Sunday: Living with Everyday Faith” sermon series; a twelve-week study within the book of James. This week we dove into chapter four, where James addresses communities experiencing spiritual compromise: being on fire for the Lord yet making decisions that lead towards unfaithfulness to Him. Pastor Filmore teaches us that spiritual compromise festers when we develop close friendship and obedience to the world around us rather than God. Even small acts...2024-07-3138 min
