Bart Jones is deeply passionate about helping individuals know and experience the love of Christ then go make a difference in this world.  Bart’s connection to Ability Ministry runs deep—he first visited on a mission trip with his youth group 34 years ago.  On that trip, he saw the incredible diversity of God’s children and was struck by the truth that God sees and loves us all.  That moment sparked something in him to help advocate and serve individuals with disabilities, a calling he has carried ever since.  For the past 15 years, he has faithfully served on the Board of Directors to help guide the ministry’s vision and impact.

Bart grew up in Elizabethtown, Kentucky, and has served in ministry for many years, including as the Associate Minister of Contemporary Worship and Teens at Northside Christian Church in Georgetown, Kentucky, and as Senior Minister of Community Christian Church in London, Kentucky.  In every role, he has led with a heart for discipleship, outreach, and community impact.  Known for his engaging communication style, relational approach, and passion, Bart is committed to equipping churches and leaders to embrace and champion Ability Ministry.

Bart and his wife, Bridgette, are devoted parents to their son, Declan.  They love Jesus and love spending time together, spending time with friends, and serving others.
