This week on The Upload, host Brooke Taylor sits down with viral content creators and new parents Courtneyand Alex Quist for an honest conversation about obedience; choosing to follow God even when the path isn’t clear and the cost feels high.

Before they ever met, both Courtney and Alex encountered moments where the Lord asked them to trust Him fully. Courtney shares how growing up Catholic eventually led to a life-changing encounter with Jesus. A moment that awakened a deeply personal faith. Alex opens up about being raised in the church as a pastor’s kid and what it looked like to move from inherited belief to a faith he chose for himself.

In separate seasons, God called both of them to move to Nashville, Tennessee. Steps of obedience that didn’t come with a full roadmap, but shaped their faith, their purpose, and ultimately their story together. Later in the episode, Alex vulnerably shares his journey to freedom, opening up about his struggle with pornography addiction and how surrender, accountability, and God’s grace led him out of shame and into healing. His testimony is a powerful reminder that nothing is beyond God’s reach when brought into the light.Courtney and Alex also share their heart behind social media; not to preach, but to live differently.

Their desire is simple: to create space for people to lean in, notice something distinct, and maybe, through their lives, be drawn closer to Jesus. Now as new parents, they reflect on how this season has deepened their understanding of Christ’s love and sharpened their commitment to obedience.

🎧 This episode is for anyone learning to trust God’s voice, take the next step of faith, and follow Jesus before the applause.
