"Couchman offers a readable and user-friendly guide to deciphering and interpreting Christian visual art. She is rightly keen to meet the urgent need for a new depth of theological vision in the church and beyond." —Jeremy Begbie, Duke Divinity School; Author of Voicing Creation's Praise: Towards a Theology of the Arts

"Couchman offers a history of images in Christian art that we can assimilate into our own work. A must-read for students of the Bible whatever your outlet for creativity." —Gary Bradley, Gallery Owner and International Director, Via Affirmativa, an International Arts Movement
"For those of us who work professionally with Christian iconography in the twenty-first century, The Art of Faith is a book to keep close at hand." —Edward Knippers, Visual Artist
"This delightful volume opens for the reader the beauty and meaning of Christian art through the centuries. It teaches us a whole new vocabulary, a language of colors and forms, and equips us to take part in the faith of Christian artists of every century and continent, who worshiped the Lord in beauty and truth." —Frederica Mathewes-Green, Author of The Open Door and The Jesus Prayer
