The Visible Music College, created in early 2000, is a private music college with other teaching sites in Chicago, Dallas, and Atascadero, California. The school mission is to train and equip musicians, technicians, and business professionals in craft and Christian character, for effective service in the music industry and in the Church.

Born and raised in New Mexico, Dr. Johnson has a BME, an MRE, and a DRE with an emphasis in sacred music.

An ordained pastor, he is a teacher and trainer of choirs, a vocal coach, and was co-founder of Day Spring School of Arts (several hundred students enrolled).

As a teacher, he actively uses books, workbooks, and self-developed curriculum with a multitude of focuses from the worship leader position to musicians and singers to the congregation. He has also been involved in the recording of three praise and worship cds - I Will Lift Up Mine Eyes, To the Holy One, and You Are the Mighty God.
