- W133712879 abstract "In 1941, the Methodist Student Movement began publishing motive Magazine, a periodical which connected Methodist college students on campus while providing students with a forum to discuss world events and cultural change. In the May, 1941, issue, Grace Sloan Overton’s article, “What’s on the Students’ Mind,” asked: “Has the development of birth control methods removed one of the major reasons for chastity?”1 Left unanswered by Overton and open for discussion by the student body, this question led me to wonder when Methodists began supporting the use of birth control. To some, 1940 may seem like an early confrontation with what was then (and is still now) a culturally sensitive issue like birth control. Evangelicals, however, confronted birth control long before 1940, as will be shown. This paper will argue that the method of protecting the evangelical family changed over the course of time, from 1870 to 1940, from one of legally denying birth control to women for the protection of the Christian family to one of legalizing birth control methods in the 1930s for the protection of the Christian family. While the definition of family and the goal of protecting the family remained the same, the method changed. For my purposes, I am using the Methodist denominations of the 1930-1950s2, specifically how Methodists altered their language related to family life, as a case study. Methodists were part of the evangelical camp during the 1870s which worked to make birth control methods illegal, and they were one of the earliest Protestant denominations to alter their view, which makes them a perfect example of the complex relationship between evangelical Protestants and contraception. I will examine Methodists’ own language drawn from the Book of Discipline and the Board of Education’s literature concerning family life published from 1928-1956 to support my argument." @default.
