A Tale of Two Trees: John Barnts, "Downside Up"

by Matthew Clark | One Thousand Words

John Barnts wishes he could spend all his time reading, writing, and talking about interesting things. Unfortunately, books cost money, and words are hard to sell, so he spends most of his time playing piano for schools and churches, and working as a case manager in a local Drug Court program in Madison, Mississippi. John and his family moved to Mississippi in 2011 to attend seminary, which led to five glorious years of teaching the Bible at the college level. Before Mississippi, he spent twelve years at a private K-12 in Los Angeles as a music teacher and administrator. He is currently working on a non-fiction book project, teaches a couple of home Bible studies, and makes short theological videos with his son on YouTube called Barnts in the Belfry.    

Follow You Down

by Matthew Clark

Whoever would lose their life 

They will save it 

 

CHORUS 

I wanna be in your story, Jesus

I wanna follow you down, down, down

 

Whoever would save their life 

They will lose it 

 

BRIDGE
Your love is teaching me a new story
