Acknowledgements

First and foremost, I wish to acknowledge the authors who so generously contributed their time and expertise to provide essays for these volumes. I also wish to thank to staff at De Gruyter Press especially Alissa Jones Nelson, Albrecht Doehnert, Sophie Wagenhofer, and Sabina Dabrowski for their expert guidance in bringing this project to fruition. Thanks also to Eric Ziolkowski for responding to countless emails with spot-on advice and encouragement.

Gratitude must also be expressed to my former colleagues at Greensboro College, where this project began, and to my current colleagues at Eastern University for embracing me and my research interests. Students have provided insightful feedback in my film courses at both institutions. Among my colleagues, I must make special mention of my dear friend Barnes Tatum, who first introduced me to the academic study of Bible and film and with whom I have shared many invaluable conversations, milkshakes, and French fries over the years.

Finally, special acknowledgement goes to my family: my late father Bob Burnette, who loved movies, and my mother Betty Parrott Burnette, who worries that I will go blind from staring at my laptop screen; my husband John Bletsch, who is always prouder of my work than I am; and my boys, Jonah, Ethan, and Daniel, who enrich my life beyond measure.
