Udo Middelmann was exposed to the problem of human suffering from an early age. During and after World War II, his family lived near Heidelberg, Germany and then moved to Bonn, where his father worked in the Ministry of Refugee Affairs, responsible for the economic integration of millions of displaced Germans. Later, his father's work for UNICEF took the family to Beirut, Lebanon and New York City.

Middelmann's unique perspective on biblical issues is informed by a truly international upbringing and education. He holds degrees in both law (LLM from Freiburg University, Germany) and theology (BD and MA from Covenant Theological Seminary, St. Louis, MO, USA). His teaching experience reflects the same international flavor. For eight years, he held the Crawford Chair for Religion at The King's College in Briarcliff Manor, New York and later became a visiting professor in the department of philosophy at the new King's College in New York City. He also serves as Instructor in Apologetics and Postmodernism at the Geneva Bible Institute. For seven years he was a consultant and principle speaker in seminars on "Ethics for a Civil Society" for the Russian Ministry for Education in 65 regional capitals of Russia, Ukraine, Estonia, Romania and Moldova.

Middelmann's approach to the age-old problems of the world is at once scholarly and far removed from the ivory tower. He has lectured widely on ethics and society in many countries on every continent. His diverse career experience also includes fifteen years as an associate pastor in Switzerland and four years as the Education Program director for the International Institute for Relief and Development of Food for the Hungry in Geneva, Switzerland.

For the last twenty-three years, he has been the President of the Francis A. Schaeffer Foundation. Middelmann is a prolific author who regularly publishes his reflections on current issues in "Footnotes", has written five books, Pro-existence (1974), The Market-driven Church (2004), The Innocence of God(2007), Christianity versus Fatalistic Religions in the War against Poverty (2008) and Neither Necessary nor Inevitable: History needn't have been like this (2010). He has also authored numerous articles and chapters for new editions of Francis Schaeffer's books and most recently for a new edition of "Christianity is Jewish" by Edith Schaeffer.
