Under the broader umbrella of feminism, religion and women's spirituality, the Women-Church journal included content from authors that held a diversity of understandings and perspectives.

Its editorial policy encouraged contributions from more marginalized groups and it remained a non-refereed title as a way of making it accessible to a wide range of readers.

Paul and White wrote a history of the journal's beginnings for the 5th Birthday Issue of Women-Church in Spring 1992.
