Thesis (Ph.D.)--Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, 2017.

This dissertation explores the rise of feminization and female leadership roles within the Three-Self Patriotic Movement (TSPM) church and the effect of feminization on the church, in general, and on the fulfillment of the Great Commission, in particular. As World Christianity shifts from a Western to a Southern perspective, the theology and church practice of the non-West become ever-more important and apparent. With unmatched potential, the Chinese church becomes a key player in the future of Southern Christianity. The effects of Chinese Christian feminist practices already influence global Christianity through international theological journal publications and will escalate influence as the Chinese church establishes and strengthens their call to fulfill the Great Commission.

520 $a This dissertation explores the rise of feminization and female leadership roles within the Three-Self Patriotic Movement (TSPM) church and the effect of feminization on the church, in general, and on the fulfillment of the Great Commission, in particular. As World Christianity shifts from a Western to a Southern perspective, the theology and church practice of the non-West become ever-more important and apparent. With unmatched potential, the Chinese church becomes a key player in the future of Southern Christianity. The effects of Chinese Christian feminist practices already influence global Christianity through international theological journal publications and will escalate influence as the Chinese church establishes and strengthens their call to fulfill the Great Commission.
520 $a In an effort to understand the current realities of female leadership roles in the TSPM church, a historical approach precedes a theological discussion of TSPM theology and church practice. First, a historical overview of the slow rise of feminism in an ancient patriarchal society reveals that Protestant missionaries ushered in a feminist movement in Chinese society. Following the historical overview, research shows how communism, and Mao Zedong in particular, encouraged a different kind of feminism that ultimately affected the TSPM church.
520 $a The next approach to developing the thesis analyzes the TSPM theological method and understanding of feminist theology. In this section, TSPM theological journals, Tian Feng and Chinese Theological Review , show how Bishop K. H. Ting's push for theological reconstruction encourages a feminist interpretation of Scripture. In order to validate research with reality, interviews with female TSPM ministers reveal how the TSPM church operates with female leadership roles.
520 $a With the growth of the Chinese church, the effects of feminization hang in the balance of attempting to please socialism and fulfill the Great Commission. The push for feminist practice in the Chinese church directly impacts the success and magnitude of its expansion.
