Watchman Nee (1903-1972)
 
 
Watchman Nee was a Chinese church leader in the early twentieth century. He was born into a Methodist family on November 4, 1903. Nee was a courageous pastor and writer who saw a great revival in china.  He had no formal theological training, but with a deep commitment, he undertook thirty years of ministry in the underground church in China.  Eventually he was imprisoned for his faith and remained in prison for two decades until his death in 1972.
