Art is often viewed as being inherently spiritual. But what does it mean to describe an experience of art or beauty as "spiritual"?

By exploring various connections between art and spirituality, he helps Christians better understand the doctrine of the Holy Spirit and offers a clear, engaging theology of the arts.
