Casting Crowns’ “Scars in Heaven” was an emotional roller coaster for me. I was grieving after my father died, but I knew I needed a soundtrack to get me through. I searched for years and came up empty-handed. This song was one of the last things I needed. Mark Hall’s powerful vocals and haunting lyrics brought tears to my eyes. I was touched. And the lyric – “God will not abandon me” – stuck in my head.
Casting Crowns
The first new song from Casting Crowns, ‘Scars in Heaven,’ was released on June 4th. The song offers hope and comfort for the grieving, as it reminds them that Jesus wipes away every tear and heals every wound. It was written by Mark Hall, the frontman of the group, and features lyrics about the death of a loved one. In the video below, Hall explains the meaning behind the song.
Following the release of “Lifesong” in 2005, Casting Crowns toured the country with the band’s second studio album. It debuted on the Billboard 200 chart and featured three singles – “Lifesong,” “Praise You in the Storm,” and “Does Anyone Hear Her.” The album earned the band their first Grammy Award in 2006, and was subsequently followed by a live album, Lifesong Live.
The band has sold more than twelve million albums and received numerous RIAA certifications. They have earned RIAA Gold Certifications for four of their albums and two of their CDs, as well as a GRAMMY nomination. Casting Crowns has also won two Billboard Music Awards for “Top Christian Album” and “Best Rock Album” for their albums.

Bereavement
Christian bereavement can be difficult and the song “Scars in Heaven” is no exception. Although Christians can be confident of their faith in God, the loss of a loved one can make it difficult to hold onto that faith. This song’s lyrics refer to the deceased person’s presence in heaven, and the lyrics have meaning for anyone who has experienced bereavement. Christians may find it helpful to remember that Jesus’ scars affirmed who he was and reminded his followers of the way he lived his life.
In this song, frontman Mark Hall discusses the pain of loss. “Scars in Heaven” is the lead single from the band’s ninth studio album. The song was written about the pain of bereavement and the hope it offers. In the song, Hall reminds listeners that Jesus wipes away every tear, heals every wound and eliminates every disease, and provides hope and comfort to those who are grieving.
Jesus
As John tells us in the Book of Revelation, Jesus bears the scars of His death and torture in heaven. These scars serve as a witness against those who would deny the divinity of Jesus, who is the Son of God. While in heaven, Jesus is silent about the evil ones who would kill His body, but His scars will testify against them. The risen Christ is the only one worthy of understanding the meaning of His Passion story, so those who understand the real meaning of this passage should be able to recognize it.
In the gospels, Jesus appeared to his disciples after his resurrection and invited Thomas to be with him in heaven. Jesus’ scars will be visible for all Christians, who will one day be reunited with their Savior. Many Bible scholars believe that Jesus will bear the marks of his crucifixion throughout eternity. They will remind people of their sin and the love of God. This is a reminder of Jesus’ great love.
It is hard to accept that Jesus suffered so much to redeem us. Those who don’t believe in God’s love and redemption will look at this as foolishness. And if we are perishing believers, this message seems even more foolish. In fact, the closest followers of Christ walked away from the suffering of Jesus to support the opposition candidate in a totalitarian country. What would that person feel like if they lost the election? Surely Christ’s followers would have felt the same way if they were executed.
Physical scars
Will you have physical scars in heaven? The answer may surprise you. There’s a possibility that we’ll experience setbacks on our journey to heaven, just as Christ did. It is possible that God is demonstrating His love to us through our setbacks. After all, when we try to hold everything together, we’ll lose our lives. If we follow the teachings of Jesus, we’ll never have to deal with those setbacks again.
In the New Testament, we read of Jesus, who wore scars on His body as proof that he defeated death. When the disciples heard about Jesus’ death and resurrection, they were terrified. However, Jesus told them not to be afraid of those who would kill their body, since this will land them in hell. Then, Jesus asked one disciple, Thomas, to touch the scars on his body, and he did.
Will people have them in heaven?
If Jesus is in heaven, will we still have our scars? A middle-aged saint told me that Jesus’ scars were the most visible evidence of evil on the Day of Judgment. They will condemn those who did evil in his lifetime, he said. This makes sense because our scars are a part of our story. They are a sign of vulnerability and weakness. The same goes for us.
The apostles, for example, were fearful of Jesus because they would die for him. But after they saw his scars and were empowered to minister in his name, their attitude changed. They began to believe that the same God who raised Jesus from the dead would raise them as well. And so, they feared death no longer, even though it had scars. But before they could see the scars of Jesus, they were huddled together in fear.
In addition to his scars, Jesus had a crucifixion. These scars were the only means by which his disciples could tell that he was Jesus. His disciples believed he was a spirit, but the scars confirmed that it was him. They were able to identify him from the scars on his back, arms, and feet. Afterwards, Jesus empowered the disciples by giving them the Holy Spirit.
