After serving in the U.S. Army during World War I, an unchurched Frank Yost felt inspired to find a Christian church he might join. After researching a wide-range of options, he selected Seventh-day Adventists. He later explained the choice to Seminary students saying it was “not because the church, members or teachings was perfect, but because it had the best batting average among all the faiths studied.” 

Frank Yost, PhD, a true scholar, anchored the Theological Seminary while headquartered in Takoma Park, Maryland. The “Founding Editor” of GenesisFile.com, remembers Dr. Yost as his “all-time finest teacher.”

The Editor, a 1951 Seminary grad, was awarded the Andrews University “Honored Alumns” medallion after serving as General Counsel to the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists, 1975-1992. As a memorial to the ministry and to preserve the memory of Dr. Yost, the Editor has founded and funded the “Frank Yost Foundation” to provide scholarships for worth Andrews University Theological Seminary students.
