Preface Set in the exhilarating and unique city of New Orleans, ATLA’s sixty-eighth Annual Conference held in the humid summer of 2014 was both a notable and educational experience. Members of the 2014 Local Host Committee, the New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary (NOBTS), provided an unforgettable Annual Conference that brought together a wealth of ATLA educational programs, workshops, interest group meetings, excursions, and events. This official record of conference events and activities represents the work of the many presenters, facilitators, and others who are responsible for the breadth of material compiled within these pages. ATLA is grateful for their contributions. I hope you will enjoy reading this Summary of Proceedings, containing full text or summaries of papers, workshops, conversation groups, listen and learn sessions, and meetings, plus other items for general reference and record in the appendices.
