Book excerpt: Watson encourages readers to reconsider the traditional models of the ways in which the church has spoken about itself in the context of the patriarchal theologies in light of the basic premise Fiorenza proposed in 1982: Women are church and have always been church. The author suggests that the history of the church be reread and rewritten on women's terms, with a new awareness of the lives and presence of women as essential aspects of what the church is all about.
