For those of us who listened to CCM (Contemporary Music) this poignant message from Fr Barnabas reminds me of a favorite song of years ago, by Michael Card, “Scandalon.”

The seers and the prophets

Had foretold it long ago

That the long "Awaited One"

Would make men stumble

But they were looking for a king

To conquer and to kill

Who'd have ever thought He'd be

So meek and humble

He will be the Truth

That will offend them one and all

A stone that makes men stumble

And a rock that makes them fall

And many will be broken

So that He can make them whole

And many will be crushed

And lose their own soul

He will be the Truth

That will offend them one and all

A stone that makes men stumble

And a rock that makes them fall

And many will be broken

So that He can make them whole

And many will be crushed

And lose their own soul

He will be the Truth

That will offend them one and all

A stone that makes men stumble

And a rock that makes them fall

And many will be broken

So that He can make them whole

And many will be crushed

And lose their own soul
