How do we navigate social media as a Christ follower? How should we approach trends, present ourselves, comment on cultural moments, or even view cancel culture through a biblical lens? These are questions I longed to have answered, but found few resources that could help. That’s why I started upside down influencer: to spark these conversations, provide biblical guidance, and leave space for believers to develop their own convictions. You’re an influencer. For an upside down Kingdom. Will you join me?

    New Believers, Big Platforms with Pastor Ryan Britt

    What happens when new believers suddenly have big platforms? In this episode, Jessica sits down with Pastor Ryan Britt to explore that very tension. As more people come to faith online, they’re often looked to as spiritual authorities before they’ve had the chance to truly become rooted. So how should they navigate that? And how should the Church respond without elevating them too quickly or tearing them down? Together, Jessica and Pastor Britt unpack the weight of influence, the challenge of sanctification in the public eye, and what it really looks like to extend grace in a culture that’s quick to critique. Plus, in a world shaped by AI, they explore what authenticity can look like for a follower of Jesus and why it matters more than ever.

    You Were Never Disqualified with Joshua Delp

    It's easy to believe our “weaknesses” disqualify us from influence. We look at others online and count ourselves out. In this episode, Jessica sits down with Joshua Delp, whose story challenges that lie. Josh leads, teaches and speaks while living with a stutter that once made him question whether he could ever speak or lead publicly. They talk honestly about fear, obedience, and learning to trust God when confidence feels out of reach. Joshua shares how God has met him not in spite of his “weakness”, but through it. And how that dependence has shaped his leadership, ministry, and willingness to show up in a world that may otherwise discourage him in what he feels called to do. If you’ve ever felt overlooked, unqualified, or tempted to stay silent because you don’t measure up, you’re going to want to listen in. God isn’t looking for flawless people. He’s looking for willing ones.   Follow along with Josh Instagram: @joshuadelp Risingleadership.org   To get connected with other upside down influencers and follow along with us, you can find us on: Instagram: @upsidedowninfluencer TikTok: @upsidedowninfluencer Facebook   To reach out to us: upsidedowninfluencer@gmail.com

    Called to be an "Influencer"? with Kadi Cole

    Can someone actually be called to be a social media influencer? And what if your calling doesn’t fit neatly inside a church building, even though you feel like it should? In this episode, Jessica sits down with Kadi Cole, a seasoned leadership coach and ministry leader with experience spanning both church and secular spaces. Together, they challenge the assumption that ministry only happens on a stage or behind a pulpit. Spoiler, it doesn't! They explore whether social media influence can be a legitimate expression of calling, how to prepare your heart before a platform grows, and why understanding the difference between primary calling and secondary calling reshapes how leaders show up online. Kadi also speaks into the often-hard waiting seasons…when God has called you, but the clarity, role, or next step hasn’t yet been revealed. This episode is for Christ followers who feel a pull toward ministry and “influence” whatever form that may take. AND want to pursue it with integrity, humility, and deep dependence on God.

    The Bittersweet Side of Influencing with Evan Werthman of Snaxsonville

    Is it ever worth “cheating the system” to gain followers or influence as a Christ follower, even if it works? Even if it leads to growth, opportunity, or money? In this episode, Jessica sits down with Evan Werthman, the creator behind Snaxsonville, to unpack the tension believers face in the online space. As Evan has experienced real success on social media, he’s seen the good, the bad, and the ugly of “influencing.” He has had to wrestle with if certain things are just a part of playing the “game” or if he even wants to be a part of the game at all. Together, they discuss what sets Christ followers apart, the subtle compromises that can creep in if you’re not careful, and why doing things God’s way is always better.   Follow along with Evan: Instagram: @Snaxsonville TikTok: @Snaxsonville YouTube:@Snaxsonville   To get connected with other upside down influencers and follow along with us, you can find us on: Instagram: @upsidedowninfluencer TikTok: @upsidedowninfluencer Facebook   To reach out to us: upsidedowninfluencer@gmail.com

    When Christmas Isn’t Merry: Grief, Loneliness & Online Pressure with Rebecca Maxwell & Pastor Vinke

    Christmas is meant to feel joyful. Yet for so many people, the holidays tend to magnify what they’re already carrying … (grief, loneliness, comparison, disappointment, even pressure to perform online.) In the middle of social media’s highlight reels, it can feel like you're the only one struggling. In today’s episode, Jessica invites licensed family + marriage therapist Rebecca Maxwell from the Jesus and Your Mental Health podcast and Pastor Jonathan Vinke from The Church of Eleven22 into a raw and hope-filled conversation about navigating Christmas when it doesn’t feel so merry. In this episode we cover: • Why the holidays tend to amplify whatever we’re already feeling... - joy, grief, loneliness, stress, or unmet expectations • How social media intensifies comparison • Navigating Christmas when you’re grieving - whether the loss is a loved one, a relationship, a dream, or the way life used to be • The pressure to post like everything is fine • Setting healthy emotional + digital boundaries • Biblical encouragement -  how followers of Jesus can hold grief and hope in the same hands If you’ve ever thought…“Everyone else’s life looks better than mine.” “I should feel joyful, but I don’t.” “Posting feels weird when I’m hurting.” This conversation will meet you right where you are.

    Pursuing Faithfulness over Fame with Brice Davis

    If you’re a Christian creative, you know how easily "calling" can get tangled up with platform. In this episode, Jessica talks with Christian folk artist and songwriter Brice Davis about the tension between calling and platform and what it really means to choose faithfulness over fame in a social media society. Brice shares his journey in Christian music, how he navigates social media as an artist, and the journey to keep Jesus at the center when metrics and visibility start to define success. Jessica and Brice dive into branding, motives, humility, and how to discern when God is asking you to promote something… and when He’s asking you to stay hidden. If you’re a Christian musician, creator, or anyone wrestling with influence and identity, this conversation will encourage you to build from obedience and ultimately, root your work in the One who called you.   Connect with Brice Instagram: @bricedavismusic TikTok: @BriceDavisMusic Spotify: Brice Davis To get connected with other upside down influencers and follow along with us, you can find us on: Instagram: @upsidedowninfluencer TikTok: @upsidedowninfluencer Facebook To reach out to us: upsidedowninfluencer@gmail.com
