Question About Structure I Saw On Google Street View (shopping mall, beaches)

[6 FOOT 3]

I was wondering if someone can help me out as i was traveling on google street view on I-95 northbound and so when i got to 9A i exited east towards Jax Beaches and i could see what looked like either a mall or large shopping complex at the southeast corner of I-95 and 9A (I-295). Can someone tell me what that is?

Thanks!!

That is a church. Isn't it sad when a church looks like a shopping mall from the air?

With all the needy people in this world, a church as big as a mall is just gross misspending!!

While it is a large church (Mandarin Church of Christ) it is nowhere near the size of a shopping mall. It's about the size of a large sporting goods store. Compare it on Google Maps to the St Johns Town Center just a few miles further north!

Hmm... what does that say about Americans? We're not upset about large shopping malls or sporting goods stores, but we get upset about large churches? If our concern is for the needy, seems we would be just as disgusted by large sporting good stores! Just one guys opinion, of course...
