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.
