“Lift Up Your Gaze!”: A Review of Heaven in Stone and Glass
Every day as I make my way to work at an architecture firm in Georgetown, I weave through the masses at the metro station and try to wiggle my way to a coveted open seat on the train. I like to bring a book to read, but sometimes I simply sit and look at the people around me. I am sure you would not be surprised at my simple, daily observation: the vast majority are quietly looking down, glued to the flashing, ever-changing screens of their “smart” phones. In the 2026 documentary film Heaven in Stone and Glass, Bishop Robert Barron challenges us to look up instead.
