Around 38 yrs for me too. Since then I've talked to many Christians and befriended many preachers. Some of them have heard of Nee, but not Lee. Here in Kentucky none have ever heard of either ... except my cousin, who I sent a copy of Normal Christian Life back when I was in. He likes Nee, but spotted that I was in a cult and wouldn't/won't touch Lee with a 10 foot pole.

One preacher friend in Ft. Lauderdale had a copy of The Mindbenders on the shelf in his study, but Lee and the local church didn't stand out to him because he never heard of them.

Turns out that Lee is famous world around, but only the the minds of sycophant Leeites.
