After finding a cyst in his brain the summer after graduating high school, Bart's plans for a promising college athletic career abruptly ended. With the weight of the world upon him and nowhere to turn, the once self-confident youth became depressed and made a series of bad decisions.

In 1989, on a course for disaster and with suicide on his mind, Bart sat on a roadside curb in Varnell, GA, and invited Jesus Christ into his heart.

He immediately realized the impact of having a relationship with the Lord and thought about the difference Christ would have made in his life as a youth.

In the past 16 years, while serving in several capacities, Bart has served as a youth minister in both well-established and new churches. He has influenced the growth of young people serving the Lord and worked with as many youth as 300 at one time.

Bart has gone out into the missionary fields to talk about Jesus. He has traveled to Jamaica as a youth leader. Bart was invited to be a part of a team that went to Tolland, Connecticut, where he encouraged the youth to reach out and be a light for the lost, as well as teach the youth leaders how to run a successful youth program. In the year 2006, the Lord called Bart into youth Evangelism and he is available to visit and teach the Good News to your church.



Bart and his wife, Tara, have been happily married for 17 years.
God has blessed them with two precious children, Trevor and Kaylee.
