Author Description

Beginning in the sixteenth century, Protestant missionaries went to China for the gospel, but in the opening years of the twentieth century, following years of faithful labor and prayer, the Lord's move in China began to advance dramatically after the martyrdom of many Christians in the Boxer Rebellion. In the 1920s, many believers, who were raised up by the Lord from among high-school and college students throughout China, became instrumental in the spread of the gospel. From among these students, Nee Shu-tsu (Watchman Nee) was called and equipped by the Lord for His work..Compiled from the spoken ministry of Mr. Watchman Nee (Nee To-sheng) of Foochow and first published in Bombay, Sit, Walk, Stand continues to stir the hearts of readers with its arousing message. In this Edition, we have included the historical context of the author at the time of writing.
