"From the first motto ""Out and Out for Christ"" to today's ""Christ's Kingdom First.""

A tiny institution that drew a mere handful of students on its first day may have seemed too inauspicious to garner local media attention. Indeed, the unpretentious training school opened with little fanfare. And yet, a century and a quarter later, the school endures - in a new location, with a new name, and with an expanded mission.

This story begins with J. Walter and Emma Brown Malone amid the rise of industrial cities, the emergence of urban Bible institutes, among a small denomination of Christians known as Friends.

This commemorative book charts the journey of Malone University from its beginnings in a small rented house, through moves to two campus locations in Cleveland and finally, to its current home in Canton, Ohio. It traces Malone's history from the six adventurous souls who first enrolled on that brisk March day in 1892 to the two thousand who presently attend Malone University."

Reviews for Malone University: A Commemorative History, 1892-2017

This engaging, readable volume traces Malone's 1892 beginning in Cleveland, Ohio, as the Christian Workers Training School for Bible Study and Practical Methods of Work to the Malone University of today in Canton, Ohio. Jacalynn Stuckey shows us that central to the school's beginning is the faith of J. Walter and Emma Malone; from the first motto Out and Out for Christ to today's Christ's Kingdom First, we are reminded of the deep-rooted Christian heritage that shapes its mission. (Diane Chambers, PhD, Professor of English Emerita, Malone University) Jacci Stuckey is an incredible storyteller, and she has masterfully woven together Friends history and stories of the people who have worked and served to make Malone University what it is today. I have seen firsthand ways this book is instrumental to those new to the Malone community as they seek to understand the ethos of the institution, and it is a valuable resource for those who have long called Malone University home. I highly recommend this book! (Christina M. Schnyders, PhD, LPCC, Associate Professor of Counseling and Human Development, Co-Facilitator of the Malone University Faith and Learning Faculty Seminar, Malone University)
