If you are a Christian and marry someone that isn't a Christian but you bring them to Christ soon afterward would that still be sinning?

Yes. It is an uneven yoke. 2 Corinthians 6:14
No, you have not sinned according to 1 Corinthian 7:12-14
"If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she be pleased to dwell with him, let him not put her away. And the woman which hath an husband that believeth not, and if he be pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him. For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy. "
The second passage above addresses the question of an existing marriage where one partner or the other becomes a Christian after marriage. It does not at all address the question of marrying someone who one knows is not a Christian. The two are totally different issues. The former is talking about something that happens after marriage the other before.
Scripture clearly forbids a Christian person to marry someone who is not. In the case mentioned in the question the outcome was a good one, but it is never possible to know if this will happen or not. Many more cases abound where it has not, causing untold grief.
