New Publications

We are pleased to announce three new A&C monographs: “Creation, Satanification, Regeneration, and Deification”; “The Economy of God to Produce the Church as the Body of Christ”; and “The Personal and Intimate Experience of Christ.”


‘Everyone Who Calls’
‘Everyone Who Calls’: The Revelation of the Scriptures and the Testimony of Church History regarding Calling upon the Name of the Lord

This new book is a compilation of testimonies of the Lord’s seekers, lovers, and servants from the Scriptures and throughout the church age. It is a record of these faithful ones’ experiences of calling upon the name of the Lord, as seen in their pattern, sermons, commentaries, and expositions, as well as personal diaries, journals, letters, and hymns. The quotations from these sources serve as windows into the believers’ deep personal love for the Lord and their continuous seeking of Him by calling upon Him.

‘Everyone Who Calls’ is in some ways an extension of an earlier book, ‘Lord…Thou Saidst,’ which is a presentation of the scriptural practice of praying the Word of God back to the Lord.

Because skeptics have questioned the practice of calling on the name of the Lord, we were motivated to look throughout church history in order to find accounts in which the followers of the Lord called on His name, just as the saints and believers in the Bible did. Our endeavor continued for more than forty years and involved reading or scanning thousands of books and articles. Thus, it has been altogether heartening and supplying to study the practice of calling.

This book encourages calling on the name of the Lord for salvation, for daily habitual practice, and for producing a remnant who prepare themselves for the Lord’s coming. It is a privilege to “pursue righteousness, faith, love, peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart” (2 Tim. 2:22). May this book inspire all of us to call upon the wonderful name of our Lord.


Joseph—the Reigning Aspect of a Mature Believer
Joseph—the Reigning Aspect of a Mature Believer

Composed of select messages from the Life-study of Genesis, this new publication has been produced as an attractive, hardbound edition that would make an ideal gift for our neighbors, friends, colleagues, and relatives. This book is especially suitable for the young ones among us. Joseph is the only perfect type of Christ in the Bible, yet he faced the same trials confronting our young people today. As a teenager, he received heavenly visions through dreams. Those visions not only controlled his life; they also sustained his faith. The lessons learned from this book will inspire, encourage, guide, and preserve the young people as they consider Joseph’s remarkable life.


An Analinear Greek-English New Testament, Recovery Version
An Analinear Greek-English New Testament, Recovery Version

This analytical interlinear presents the Greek text underlying the Recovery Version New Testament, with the Strong’s number, a grammatical code, and a literal English gloss for each Greek word. The corresponding Recovery Version text is also included at the bottom of each page. We believe this Analinear fulfills the burden that Watchman Nee expressed in the later part of his ministry regarding the need for a very literal, word-for-word translation of the Greek New Testament to aid us in our careful study of God’s Word.


Text-only, Pocketsize English New Testament
Text-only, Pocketsize English New Testament

This new text-only, pocketsize edition of the English New Testament has been retypeset in paragraph format for easy, daily reading. Its smaller size now comfortably fits in your pocket.

Church Addresses Book

A new edition of the Church Address Book for 2025-2026, containing contact information for churches in the United States and US Territories, Canada, Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean will be sold today and through the remainder of the training in the south lobby of the MCC from 6:10 - 7:15 PM, only during the dinner break. The cost is $6.00 per copy. Due to the increase in the cost of postage, we strongly encourage churches to buy enough copies for their locality while they are here in Anaheim. This book will be sold only in the south lobby of the MCC; it will not be sold in the LSM bookstore.

Affirmation & Critique, vol. 30—Faith
“The Words of This Life”: Faith

Living Stream Ministry is pleased to announce a new series of issues in Affirmation & Critique entitled “The Words of This Life.” This new series considers key biblical words that signify important aspects of our Christian life and our church life—words like faith, eternal life, grace, oneness, glory, church, and worship. Although these wonderful words are common to all the believers, Brother Lee expressed his concern that many of these words have been “spoiled by Christianity, which has entirely missed the proper meaning of the proper words” (The Indwelling Christ in the Canon of the New Testament, ch. 5).

Regarding the word sanctification, for instance, Brother Lee says:

“Many Christians have heard about sanctification. However, the concept of sanctification in Christianity is much different from that found in the Bible. The vocabulary, the terminology, is the same, but the understanding is vastly different, because the dictionary of today’s Christianity differs from the dictionary of the Bible.” (Life-study of Hebrews, msg. 67)

Because so many biblical words have been spoiled by Christianity, Brother Lee spent much time and effort to update the dictionary of the Lord’s recovery to match the dictionary of the Bible. Under Brother Lee’s faithful ministry, we in the Lord’s recovery have a recovered dictionary, different from the dictionary of Christianity. Because of this, it is sometimes difficult for us to communicate with many dear, seeking believers, as Brother Lee says in another place regarding the word life:

“We may speak concerning life, but even for the word life they have various interpretations; the word is the same, but their dictionary is different. When we speak of life, they nod their heads, but after the meeting we find out that they were nodding about something else.” (Practical Lessons on the Experience of Life, ch. 15)

This new series of issues in Affirmation & Critique will explore the common misunderstandings of these biblical words and present the recovered and proper meanings of these precious words in the light of God’s New Testament economy.

We feel that this new series of issues will be an excellent way to introduce seeking believers to the riches of this ministry, and we hope that these issues will be widely distributed among those outside of the Lord’s recovery.

The first issue covers the word faith. For many Christians, faith is mere assent to the truth or mere trust in Christ for salvation. But according to the New Testament, faith does much more than this. Faith receives, faith substantiates, and faith realizes all the hidden, spiritual realities in God’s New Testament economy and joins us to these realities, making them real and operative in our being for the carrying out of God’s eternal purpose.

The first issue is now available for purchase in the LSM bookstore and on all the major eBook platforms. This periodical may also be purchased as a subscription.

Also, if any of the saints or any of the churches have the burden to help LSM make A&C available to the dear believers in their area who do not meet with us in the Lord’s recovery, please email office@lsm.org for further information. We welcome your help!

Special Fellowship on the Lord’s Current Move in Europe

There will be a special fellowship Saturday during the dinner break beginning at 6:20 pm in Room NW2. In this meeting, there will be fellowship on the significance of Europe in relation to the preparation of the bride and the Lord’s return, in light of recent events. Special attention will be given to the up-to-date situation in France as the labor is continuing on the many new ones that were contacted during the Summer Olympics of 2024. It appears, Lord willing, that three new lampstands will be raised up in France this year as a result of the many gospel trips and visitations that have taken place. In addition, there will be news concerning the Winter Olympics and Torch Relay that will be held in Italy, beginning in December 2025. Plans are being made for how we may best cooperate to advance the Lord’s move in that crucial nation. There will also be fellowship concerning upcoming gospel trips in Germany and, in particular, the construction project for the new training center for the Full-time Training in London. This meeting is open to all, especially those who have an interest or burden concerning what the Lord is doing and will do in Europe.

Winter Olympics in Italy

Dear brothers and sisters, the 2026 Winter Olympic Games will be held in Italy this coming winter. Based on our recent history in France through the Summer Olympics gospel move, we believe this is a special opportunity for the Lord to advance in Europe, this time in the crucial nation of Italy. We are one with the Lord’s desire that the gospel of the kingdom would be preached to the Italian people to strengthen His testimony in this nation before the end of the age.

The brothers in Italy would like to invite the saints in the Lord’s recovery to pray, to give, and for many to come participate in several gospel trips. These trips will begin December 3, 2025, and continue until February 23, 2026, in 7 cycles each lasting 10-14 days in length. We also anticipate the need for ongoing shepherding trips and migration after these trips. The destinations will include several locations including Rome, Florence, Naples, Sicily, Bologna, Turin, Vicenza, and Milan.

Please go to lordsmove.org/reports.html or amanatrust.org.uk/2026Italy for further details and to register to go. May the Lord use this time to advance His kingdom and His interests in Italy.
