Welcome to the Nanshan Church!

2. Theme For the Week
The Wind and the Waves Obey Him (Jonah 1:11-17) When Jonah ran from God, God pursued him. God sent a great wind and a violent storm to stop the prophet from fleeing. Often in the Bible we see God use water to judge and to redeem. We think of the Great Flood, the parting of the Red Sea, the crossing of the Jordan, and the day when Jesus commanded the wind and the waves to be still.

3. Theme For the Week
In each of these instances, God commands the water and shows His power. God's power is frightening because it exposes our sin and failures. Before Him we are as nothing. But God's power also gives us hope because only His power can save us from our sin and only His power can bring love, mercy and salvation when we face death and judgment.

28. Confession and Forgiveness

29. NICENE CREED
I believe in one God, the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth and of all things visible and invisible.

30. NICENE CREED
And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of His Father before all worlds, God of God, Light of Light, very God of very God, begotten, not made, being of one substance with the Father, by whom all things were made; who for us and for our salvation came down from heaven and was incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the virgin Mary and was made man; and was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate.

31. NICENE CREED
He suffered and was buried. And the third day He rose again according to the Scriptures and ascended into heaven and sits at the right hand of the Father. And He will come again with glory to judge both the living and the dead, whose kingdom will have no end.

32. NICENE CREED
And I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son together is worshiped and glorified, who spoke by the prophets. And I believe in one holy Christian and apostolic Church I acknowledge one Baptism for the remission of sins, and I look for the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen.

35. Mark 4:35-41
35That day when evening came, he said to his disciples, "Let us go over to the other side."36Leaving the crowd behind, they took him along, just as he was, in the boat. There were also other boats with him. 37A furious squall came up, and the waves broke over the boat, so that it was nearly swamped. 38Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on a cushion. The disciples woke him and said to him, "Teacher, don't you care if we drown?" 

36. Mark 4:35-41
39He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, "Quiet! Be still!" Then the wind died down and it was completely calm.  40He said to his disciples, "Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?"  41They were terrified and asked each other, "Who is this? Even the wind and the waves obey him!"
