Imagine an unwanted child from a loveless home becoming president of three institutions of Christian higher education with a voice for world Wesleyan leader-ship.This is the life story of David Mc Kenna. Beginning as a child growing up in a radical Holiness tabernacle, he survived that experience, , enrolled in a Christian college, discovered the healthy meaning of holiness, achieved the highest academic degree, and received his calling to ministry. As the youngest college president in the nation, he took Spring Arbor Junior College to a four-year Christian liberal arts institution. The call then came to the presidency of Seattle Pacific College, where financial crisis required turnaround management before advancing to status as a Christian university. God’s call then took Mc Kenna to the presidency of Asbury Theological Seminary, renowned among seminaries for both biblical preaching and world missions in its Wesleyan heritage. Mc Kenna retired from the presidency in 1994 in order to give full attention to his love for writing. Forty-six books confirm his legacy to the Free Methodist Church, the world Wesleyan movement and, especially, Christian higher education.
