Bart Campolo (born April 2, 1963) is an American humanist speaker and writer. He is the son of Tony Campolo, and was a pastor before transitioning from Christianity to secular humanism.[1] Campolo is the co-founder of Mission Year and the author of several books including Kingdom Works: True Stories of God and His People in Inner City America and Things We Wish We Had Said, which he co-wrote with his father. His most recent book, Why I Left, Why I Stayed, also co-written with his father, is a reflection on both men's "spiritual odysseys and how they evolved when their paths diverged."[2] He was the first Humanist Chaplain at the University of Southern California.[3]
Early life and education
Bart Campolo was born April 2, 1963, in Philadelphia. He was named for the Swiss Reformed theologian Karl Barth.[4] Campolo attended Haverford College before completing a B.A. in Religious Studies from Brown University.[3][5]
Ministry work
In 1999, Campolo and his wife, Marty, founded Mission Year, an urban Christian ministry program. It was born out of the merger of their first organization, Kingdomworks, and Campolo's father's Evangelical Association for the Promotion of Education.[6] Mission Year currently serves Chicago, Houston, and Philadelphia.[7]
Following a cycling accident during the summer of 2011, Campolo announced that he no longer believes in God and has transitioned to secular humanism.[8] Campolo decided that "He’d help [people] accept that we’re all going to die, that this life is all there is and that therefore we have to make the most of our brief, glorious time on earth."[8] He became the first Humanist chaplain at the University of Southern California.[3][9]
Campolo gave a talk at the first 5 Talent Academy teaching event in Richmond, VA, on October 1, 2009.[1]
Campolo has also spoken at several atheist and secular events including Atheists United, Houston Oasis, Atheist Community of San Jose, Secular Student Alliance, and Sunday Assembly Los Angeles.[10]
Writing and religious commentary
Bart Campolo sparked some controversy after publishing an article in The Journal of Student Ministries titled "The Limits of God's Grace".[11] This article, which argues that God is not currently in control of the universe and will eventually utterly triumph over evil, was perceived as heretical by many in the evangelical community, most notably by Christianity Today, who drew comparisons between Campolo and Ivan Karamazov.[12]
Campolo has engaged in an ongoing conversation with his evangelical father since he announced to him that he no longer believes in God. They have co-authored a book exploring the issues at the heart of this conversation,[13] and a documentary film (Leaving My Father's Faith) was released in 2018 which features the conversations between them and tell the story of Bart's journey out of faith.[14]
Campolo is the host of the Humanize Me! podcast, first released on February 1, 2016.[15] The podcast centers around encouraging people to help others selflessly. As of April 2018, Campolo has published 65 episodes of Humanize Me!
