I've gathered that Sandra is a relative of some kind. I found an article that Jim Yohe wrote for 90 & 9 about five years ago, but that's the extent of it. Can someone enlighten this poor soul?
I LOVE meeting new people and I'm very curious about this fellow.
Be blessed.

Jim Yohe was a UPCI minister. his father started the Light House Ranch for Boys and Jim worked there as well as being a full time evangelist.
Jim started a forum much like this one called Faithchildforum. FaithChild was really the first of its kind and was a really amazing place where libs and cons clashed in debate and Jim held it all together and there was also a webpage with lots of articles and such.
It was really awesome. Then suddenly Jim died. he was only in his early 50's (or late 40's) at the time and it really was tragic.
Faith Child (or FCF) kept going for quite a while but eventually fell apart and was replace by NewFaithChildForum by Vicky. That place ran for some time but eventually it died out. The refugees from FCF/NFCF decided to create a new forum that would have 5 owners with equal power so that there would be a good chance of the place continuing. That new place is AFF....
Jim was the visionary that came up with the concept that is AFF.... well, AFF isnt exactly what FCF was FCF was better in my opinion but none the less, without Jim, we would not have AFF today.
hope that helps. Others could say more about the GREAT Jim Yohe.
We might!
