Who is Bart?

Over three decades of Christian ministry, Bart became increasingly committed to building loving relationships, working for social justice and cultivating a sense of gratitude for the wonders of life. Now, as a community builder, counselor, podcaster, and humanist chaplain at the University of Southern California, he inspires and supports non-believers who are banding together to actively pursue goodness in an openly secular way.

Podcast

Bart’s bi-weekly podcast is a growing resource to a community of secular people and searchers who want to make the most out of life. Listen here!

Support Bart's mission!

Bart’s podcast and Facebook communities are free of charge, his counseling and coaching fees are on a sliding scale, and his work with students at USC is entirely voluntary. Keeping all this good stuff going requires incredible amounts of time, energy … and financial support. If you’ve benefited from this humanist ministry, or simply believe in what we’re doing, please do your part by making a tax-deductible donation or – better still – becoming a monthly supporter.
