This issue of The Ministry contains six messages which were given during the 1997 fall term of the Full-time Training in Anaheim, California concerning the grafted life. The first three messages deal with knowing and experiencing the divine life in the grafted life. If we are to live the grafted life in reality, we need to know and experience the divine life in a richer and fuller way day by day. Message One presents the matters of the sense of life and the law of life, Message Two speaks concerning the fellowship of life and the light of life, and Message Three deals with the growth in life and reigning in life. Message Four speaks of bearing fruit and ministering life in the grafted life, Message Five presents the church life and the Body life in the grafted life, and Message Six unveils the New Jerusalem--the ultimate consummation of the grafted life. Through our being grafted into Christ as the embodiment of the Triune God, we are mingled and incorporated with the Triune God to become a great, universal, divine and human incorporation of the processed Triune God with the regenerated, transformed, and glorified tripartite man. We become the New Jerusalem by living a grafted life. Last of all, we include a report concerning the Lord's move in England and a schedule of upcoming conferences in Europe.

The "lost country" is the familiar country of innocence and security known as youth—a country we have all known and which, occasionally, in a book like this one, we are able to rediscover. J. R. Salamanca's The Lost Country is the story of a boy, Jim Blackstarr, who grows up on a farm in Virginia. As a child, he delights in the beauty that surrounds him: the rivers and hills and trees, the seasons of the year, all the shapes and textures and patterns of his world. But, as he grows older, he makes other discoveries. He experiences brutality, passion, fear, and shame. These experiences destroy the simplicity of his early relationships; they complicate and darken his later ones. Ultimately, they drive him—as they drive all men—out of, and away from, the country of his youth.
