Thesis (Ph.D.)--International Baptist Theological Seminary of the European Baptist Federation (Czech Republic), 2010.

The typical white American woman underwent rapid transformation from private sphere homemaker at the onset of the twentieth century to confident career woman a few decades later. Within the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC), the largest Protestant denomination in the United States, women's roles shifted dramatically as well. This thesis analyzes the roles that female Southern Baptist editors portrayed for women in the SBC from 1906 to 2006, with an emphasis on missions efforts. It examines magazines published by Woman's Missionary Union (WMU), auxiliary to the SBC: Our Mission Fields (1906--1914), Royal Service (1914--1995), Contempo (1970--1995), and Missions Mosaic (1995--2006)---sources that no other research has comprehensively investigated.

520 $a The typical white American woman underwent rapid transformation from private sphere homemaker at the onset of the twentieth century to confident career woman a few decades later. Within the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC), the largest Protestant denomination in the United States, women's roles shifted dramatically as well. This thesis analyzes the roles that female Southern Baptist editors portrayed for women in the SBC from 1906 to 2006, with an emphasis on missions efforts. It examines magazines published by Woman's Missionary Union (WMU), auxiliary to the SBC: Our Mission Fields (1906--1914), Royal Service (1914--1995), Contempo (1970--1995), and Missions Mosaic (1995--2006)---sources that no other research has comprehensively investigated.
520 $a This study locates WMU's origins in the woman's missionary movement. It maintains that from 1906 to 1918, WMU magazines portrayed women's role as engaging in and supporting the "uplift" of women and children, replicating the emphases of the woman's missionary movement. From 1919 to 1945, Royal Service depicted women's role as supporting the SBC, reflecting the denominational identity developing among Southern Baptists---and providing WMU members with new influence in the SBC. From 1946 to 1967, Royal Service, informed by conservative American culture, portrayed women's role as limited to cultivating a Christian influence---most notably in the home. In contrast, from 1968 to 1983 WMU magazines mirrored many of the activist, pro-women sentiments prevalent in American culture. Finally, from 1984 to 2006 these magazines sought to sustain WMU's institutional life by emphasizing concepts popular among evangelical women, including spiritual growth, prayer, and witnessing.
520 $a This thesis argues that WMU editors continually---though not always consciously---reshaped their ideal of Christian womanhood to correspond with views of gender popular within American culture and Southern Baptist life, and explores the tensions inherent in that process.
