I had some friends get me back into the game after a long dryspell and I found an old binder of cards in my basement. Long story short I found the card Barren Glory and I have always wanted to build a deck with that card! I have no idea what format that card can be played in and I am sorryif this is in the wrong thread but any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
Not really. The implication of posting a thread here is that it's a tournament-level deck, and, frankly, as awesome as Barren Glory is, it's not really a viable strategy in such an environment. This would be the best format for it if it were, though.
I would start with Karn Liberated. Basically, you use the Karn to exile it, ramp it up to the ultimate, restart the game, mulligan to 0 at the start of the new game, and win on upkeep. I THINK that'll work, but I'd check with someone who knows the rules a bit better.

I've seen it win in a whack-tastic way, by protecting it with an Oblivion Ring, then getting rid of everything else with Apocalypse. (This was the same game where my group-hug deck did a 1st-turn Eureka though, so that may have helped. :P)
It really needs lands that can sac for mana (ie invasion / masques two-mana sac lands) so that you can ramp quickly and end up with no permanents in play.

boh...forgot about worldpurge, I had that in my mental build of it when I was toying with the idea a few months back. Let us know how the deck turns out
I think a UW control deck that rushes the World Purge after O-ringing the Barren Glory would be a solid way to win since you can choose to UP TO SEVEN cards, means you can choose to keep none.
Venser + Karn as options to make the deck work.
Venser gives you a blinking ability for when you play Worldpurge so you can win the next upkeep and Karn can let you win by just using him to control the field or you can just try for ult with his ability.
I want go with the counter tron logic, Azorius Signet into Annex, Dream Leash and steal cards from my opponent to control the board.
I think it has possiblity
