The Spiritual Man is het eerste en tevens enige boek van omvang dat ooit geschreven is door de bekende Chinese kerkleider Watchman Nee. Dit boek vormt de basis van Watchman Nee's denken en prediking en speelt later altijd op de achtergrond van zijn toespraken en Bijbeluitleg een grote rol. In The Spiritual Man wordt op praktische wijze een veelheid aan onderwerpen belicht.
