In 1981, the issue of restoration of women led Hansen to the issue of male and female reconciliation in the Church. According to Hansen, this issue seeks to restore the biblical view of God's purpose for creation which Aglow bases on . Aglow believes this purpose was to have a family, a people who would share God's life, nature, spirit, vision, and purpose, and through whom God would express his life, power, and glory in the earth. Hansen believes that it takes male and female together to fulfill this purpose and that the restoration of this foundational relationship is necessary before the Church as a whole can fulfill its destiny to express God's image.
