“In a world filled with distractions, Veldhuizen reminds us of God’s desire todraw the church into the overarching story of the Bible, focusing on those whoare ‘far off’ from the gospel. Far Off Saints cuts through the noise, conveyingGod’s heart for the lost.”

Mark Batterson
NYT bestselling author of The Circle Maker

“Far Off Saints is a calling to the Church to rediscover and return to her noble calling to take the Good News of Jesus Christ to those who have yet to hear– near or far. It's a calling to slumbering Christians to reawaken and reignite the Pentecost fire that defined and drove the Early Church in supernatural power, come what may.”

Reverend Dr. Lisa Pak
Partners & Networks (Asia) for Finishing the Task & Kingdom Impact Network (KIN) Catalyst for Wycliffe USA

“Through compelling stories, eye-opening facts, and deft Scripture analysis, Ivan Veldhuizen’s book, Far Off Saints, will challenge all who read it to reflect carefully and prayerfully on God’s mission in this world, and our involvement in it. I highly recommend this book!”

Larry W. Caldwell
Academic Dean, Kairos University; Senior Missiologist, Converge

Ivan Veldhuizen has spent decades leading mission engagement and inspiring churches to reach the least-reached people around the world. His work with Converge has focused on mobilizing churches toward a global vision, rooted in his deep love for the local church. With 28 years as a pastor, Ivan’s leadership has been marked by a passion for helping churches thrive in their spiritual health and outreach, while always keeping the Great Commission at the forefront.

Beyond ministry, Ivan is known for his love of roasting his own coffee and enjoying sushi. He’s also an adventurous eater, always ready to try new ethnic foods. Ivan and his wife Susan live in Orlando, Florida, where they cherish time with their three grown children and six grandchildren.

For all those who are here, near and far off.

Around the world, people groups and communities remain unreached—no gospel presence, no disciples, no church, no missionaries. Though distant to us, they are close to God’s heart. As Peter said at Pentecost, “This promise is for you, your children, and all who are far off.”
