For those who missed Jaeson Ma & the 1040 Screening

Hey guys. UPenn's Jaeson Ma screening went exceptionally well on thursday. Below is a student's personal blog recap about the night. In addition, you will find the video of both the musical introduction by Jaeson Ma, the sermon that followed the 1040 Movie along with the prayer and performances by three Christian rap artists.

1040 Movie Screening BLOG TESTIMONIAL
Blessed be His name. Just got rocked at Jaeson Ma's "1040" screening. Was truly an inspirational evening. I felt what was more significant was the fact that I was absolutely exhausted. Yet I sucked it up, and went to this event, knowing it would last several hours. I'm not gunna lie, but I was seriously tempted into skipping the event to catch up on some sleep. But the moment I stepped foot into the auditorium, I knew I made the right choice. This is just a testament to the true power of God. He takes us at such a fragile moment in our lives--when we're at the breaking point, when we're tired and weak, when we feel as if we have nothing significant to offer--and radically moves in us, speaks in us, and motivates us to answer our true calling. After the event ended, I just felt so refreshed, rejuvenated, and excited about what God's about to do in my life. I think two things really struck me tonight: China and Government/Law.
As of lately (I don't know why) I've been feeling that my heart was being drawn towards China and the Chinese people. Tonight just confirmed what my heart felt. I now truly feel that there is a REAL PURPOSE in my education. I don't want to just go through the motions anymore. At times I felt that the things I learned in school wouldn't really serve a significant purpose in the future. Boy was I wrong. Jaeson's message really stirred in me some crazy emotions...something that I just can't express in words--there's such peace in my heart that what I'm investing in my education right now WILL pay off in the end. Everything has a purpose. Everything is for a greater purpose.
Tonight was a great night, spent with great people, speaking about great things.
