O Love That Will Not Let Me Go

1. O Love that will not let me go,
I rest my weary soul in thee;
I give thee back the life I owe,
That in thine ocean depths its flow
May richer, fuller be.

2. O light that followest all my way,
I yield my flickering torch to thee;
My heart restores its borrowed ray,
That in thy sunshine's blaze its day
May brighter, fairer be.

3. O Joy that seekest me through pain,
I cannot close my heart to thee;
I trace the rainbow through the rain,
And feel the promise is not vain,
That morn shall tearless be.

4. O Cross that liftest up my head,
I dare not ask to fly from thee;
I lay in dust life's glory dead,
And from the ground there blossoms red
Life that shall endless be.

Gender discrimination in church governance

This presentation by a reporter for Video Volunteers discusses gender discrimination in church governance in Nagaland. The volunteer discusses about male-dominated church administration and how women are discouraged from becoming pastors and priests in churches in Nagaland. Though women are highly regarded in the society, and for their role and contribution in the scoiety, there are some areas where women are discouraged to be leaders over men or alongside men. Occupying high positions in the clergy as priests is one such area. Sadly such an attitude is rooted in our very own pre-middleages Christianity teachings like "I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet". 1Timothy 2:12. So the attitude of keeping women under wrap is may be not an idea influenced from somewhere else.

With modern society favoring gender equality, and from many sectors women hoping to be treated a par with men, we hope there should be some sort of adaptation with changing times. Or we will continue to stick with ancient traditions?

"Do you think there is gender discrimination in the church today in Nagaland?

Watch and share your views.

Nagas: The advent of Christianity

The most important landmark in the history of the Naga people with considerable social, cultural and political ramifications is the arrival of missionaries and the spread of Christianity among the Naga tribes. The acceptance of Christianity marks a departure from their many tribal customs and traditions, and along with the spread of English education, heralds the arrival of modernity in the Naga hills. The first missionary to arrive the Naga hills is believed to be Rev. Miles Bronson in 1841 although he stayed only for a short period. In the 1870s, Dr. & Mrs. E.W. Clark worked among the Aopeople and with the help of Mr.Godhula, an Assamese Christian, established the first Church in Molungkimong in 1872.

The missionaries served as an agent in forging a greater "Naga" identity which is a radical departure from the age old set up of warring village republics. The dreaded custom of head hunting slowly declined and disappeared as more and more Nagas embraced Christianity in the early 20th century. Today, more than 95% of Naga people claim to be Christians. Christianity has changed the Naga society entirely and it bears little semblance to the tribal society that it was a century ago. The Christian missionaries interfered in the social and cultural practices to a far greater extent than the government. The new educational system and religion disrupted the indigenous pattern of life as both the British administration and the Christian missionaries brought about dramatic changes among the Naga tribes thereby effecting the tribes to discard their age old social patterns, cultural practices and traditional political setup without providing functional substitutes.
