In Image and Spirit, Karen Stone provides a theological and aesthetic background for understanding art as an embodiment of the transcendent. Geared to the general reader, the book helps the reader develop the ability to look at artwork of all styles and from all periods, and interpret and appreciate them from a spiritual perspective. Image and Spirit also explores the communal aspect of art it can be a prophetic voice that challenges, mobilizes, and sensitizes us, and it can be a pastoral tool that enriches the spiritual and aesthetic journey of a community of faith.

Karen Stone is an instructor of art at the University of Texas at Arlington, and the art specialist for the Fort Worth Independent School District. She has lectured extensively on art and religion, and her work has appeared in dozens of group and solo exhibits and corporate, museum, and individual collections.
The ultimate goal of this book is the expansion of human insight, both spiritual and visual. If we allow Image and Spirit to guide us, we will surely make a significant step in the journey toward a deeper relationship with the God of creativity, imagination, and joy.
