Have you ever wondered how to share your faith on social media? In this episode, I’m joined by Cassidy Brown, a faith-driven content creator who has built a powerful online presence by unapologetically sharing about her relationship with Christ.

We dive into Cassidy’s journey of stepping out in faith on social media, the challenges of staying true to biblical truth in a culture that often opposes it, and how she navigates criticism and the pressure to conform. She shares practical wisdom for anyone who feels called to use their online platform to glorify God - whether you have 10 followers or 10,000.

If you’ve ever struggled with fear of judgment, wondered how to respond to negativity or questioned whether social media can truly be used for Kingdom impact, this conversation is for you! Topics include:

Cassidy’s testimony and what led her to share about Jesus online The balance between boldness and compassion in faith conversations Overcoming fear, criticism and the pressure to conform How to build an authentic community of believers on social media

How does a pastor approach social media? In this episode of Upside Down Influencer, I sit down with Pastor Clayton Baird from Legacy House to explore how he navigates the digital world while staying true to his calling. We discuss the boundaries he sets to protect his heart, family, and church, the tension between ministry and personal branding, and the challenge of staying authentic in an online-driven culture. Plus, knowing that his sermons will inevitably end up on social media, does that influence how he presents himself?

Whether you’re a pastor, content creator, or just someone trying to honor God online, this conversation will challenge and encourage you to approach social media differently.
