Review:

"Reveals an entirely new area of intersection between Christianity and cinema. "Celluloid Sermons" provides a foundational study of how Christian groups used film as part of the construction of their own identities. A 'must read' for any scholar or layperson interested in American history, culture, and religion." -Anne Moore, University of Calgary

"Through ground breaking research, Lindvall and Quicke uncover forgotten films from Protestant producers like Irwin Moon, Carlos Baptista, and Ken Curtis. The earnest, embarrassing, and energizing are all recounted with respect and rigor."-Craig Detweiler, Pepperdine University

"Enthusiasts of American religion and film will find a treasure trove as the authors catalog with wit and anecdotal flair the movies, producers, and trends that constituted this fledgling 'Christian film industry."-William D. Romanowski, Calvin College
