What Area Directors are Saying About the Program:
“My experience at Malone has prepared me with cutting edge and
state-of-the-art sport and recreation ministry tools. I have gained the depth
of and appreciation for the history and theology of ministry through the medium
of leisure and recreation. This practical theological training has been a
springboard for effectiveness in the areas of organization and administration.
It also has served as a solid foundation for the impact of people within my
ministries in the church and the FCA. In addition, the relationships that I was
able to develop at Malone were formative as I went through my experience on
campus. The connections I made within the School of Theology
serve me today through continued mentoring and friendship.”

“FCA’s partnership with Malone
College in Canton, Ohio
(home of the Pro Football Hall of Fame) opened a door for me to explore my
graduate degree in my field of passion, sports ministry. Malone’s class
structure is ideal for discussion, personal challenge, and spiritual growth.
Attending classes at Malone was a positive experience for me because of the
passionate, knowledgeable, and Christian leadership of my professors; because I
was able to pay my tuition through my FCA organization (with FCA approval); and
because Malone allowed me to transfer many of my completed seminary hours into
the degree program.” –Bryan P. Veatch,
Barren River Area, Kentucky
Area Director
“The FCA staff has a daunting task in accurately sharing God’s
Word. The Malone sports ministry professors have put sand in my shoes to
understand what was going on thousands of years ago and how to properly apply
the Word in today’s culture. The Malone sports ministry program is flexible,
provides fellowship opportunities, and is very applicable to our everyday
work.”
