A Universe Away and Burning—The Life and Art of Thomas Kinkade
Russ Ramsey

Thomas Kinkade (1958-2012) wanted to present a more perfect world, and who doesn’t want that? But what if the brilliant light in his windows shone as it did because the house was, in fact, on fire. Wouldn’t we want the maker of that world to tell us that before we opened the door behind which the flames danced? It seems we would not.

Come hear the story as we ask the ever-important question: What have we done?
