This week on The Upload with Brooke Taylor, Brooke and Pastor Mark Evans sit down with country artist Corey Kent for one of the most raw and vulnerable conversations yet. Corey opens up about navigating miscarriage and loss, sharing how one of the hardest seasons of his life became a defining moment in his faith—not just for him, but for his entire family.

From walking his children through grief to holding onto the hope of heaven, this conversation is a powerful reminder of what it means to trust God when life doesn’t make sense. The conversation also dives into fatherhood and purpose, as Corey reflects on raising four kids, how becoming a dad reshaped his priorities, and why he believes success 50 years from now has nothing to do with awards—and everything to do with whether his kids still want to be around him.

Plus, Corey shares a pivotal moment on stage in front of 60,000 people where he felt God clearly reveal that the life he thought he wanted—fame, accolades, being “the biggest artist”—wasn’t actually what his heart was made for. Instead, he’s learning to surrender the outcome, trust God with his career, and create from a place of peace—even if that means praying over his record in a Taco Bell parking lot.

This episode is about: Finding faith in the middle of grief Letting go of control and surrendering your plans Redefining success through family, not fame And choosing to believe God is still good—no matter the outcome If you’ve ever wrestled with loss, questioned your purpose, or felt torn between ambition and what truly matters, this conversation will stay with you long after it ends.
