Bishop Robert Barron on Aspects of the Ascension


On this the traditional Feast of the Ascension Bishop Barron's thoughts on heaven and earth are especially appropriate.

The Ascension raises questions in our minds, does it not? Where is heaven? Is it up? We know it is not a physical place in the way we would normally think of a physical place. And yet we also know that Jesus in present in heaven, in His body. So how do we reconcile those two realities? Bishop Barron explains the mystery very well, with words that we know can only point to those realities that are beyond our understanding.
