My husband said this: it’s amazing to see someone like BRIAN who is submitting to God and truly knows what it means to be submitted and truly has this power and strength physically submit to the authority of Jesus! Amen! So beautiful

[@JayJenas-ge2tn]

You Christians are so confused submit to God and submit to Jesus and you think Jesus is God so confusing

[@mrs.nolanroadrunnercanyon5572]

@@JayJenas-ge2tn I understand how that could be confusing! I was once there and it felt like too much. Thankful to not be there anymore! True freedom brotha! God bless

[@songbird9444]

​@@JayJenas-ge2tnJesus Christ is God manifested in the flesh. He is our Savior. Hope that's not too confusing.

[@JayJenas-ge2tn]

@@songbird9444 so God became a baby (jesus) who had to born and breastfed, what God would need to be born or breastfed? Come to islam people before it's to late

[@songbird9444]

@@JayJenas-ge2tn LOL..He became like us..to understand His creation. He is not a God who is alien to us. He loves us..and he died for us. Islam is a false religion.

Bro, my favorite fighter got SAVED! Praise God! Thank you for sharing your testimony, Brian. I can’t wait to see how God uses you to further His Kingdom!

[@jeremyjohnson_la]

Amazing!

[@tommydiskin8877]

Coming to this after Brian beat Yair this weekend. His comeback story, his rebirth, really connected with me. And I’ve always enjoyed his fights, but never did a deep dive into him as a person. I can’t tell you how much I connect with his story, despite our differences, and I do feel like God has reached me as I listened to this. I’ve always had a relationship with Him, but not always a good one. This further drives home the importance of submitting to His will and power. I’m beyond inspired, probably closer to blessed. Thank you for this, gentlemen. I wish I could have been a fly on the wall for this one in person. God bless!

Same brother, same 😭

[@vanngutier8609]

Man this pod brought me closer to Jesus this morning. Thank u T CITY

[@martinaguilar1]

God is meeting me through this podcast. I was asking for strength and asking for help and asking for a sign while im going through this dark moment in life and he was watching and listening and gave me this sign . Im gonna be walking with strength tomorrow ❤

[@ESM77]

This is so real. I needed to hear this. I have a 2 year old son. I want to be the best dad to him. I remember my father never showing emotion and I always thought he was putting up a front and never being real. This was a great episode about parenting and God. Thank you. Brian I’m happy you got your kids back and found God.

[@jeremyjohnson_la]

Wow so good bro

[@_Jorge_O]

This woke me up. For all the right reasons. Thank for the genuine feeling.

[@RibsBjj]

Thats a powerful testimony, after seeing his interview on the post fight I knew I had to search what more he had to say. What stuck with me is he saying “we still here”, shows to me that even after tought moments walking with God brings you to the other side. I needed to hear all that.

[@DominikaLasota-jh8gg]

Thank you for sharing your story, it takes a lot of courage to open up and talk about your struggles, but I think this is what many people need to hear. Your story certainly gives hope and strength not to give up. I struggled with depression and definitely reached a point where I thought it was over, but God really gives a second chance and if we just open our hearts to Him, everything changes.

[@jeremyjohnson_la]

Amen

[@i-rodtv]

Always grew up watching Brian in the octagon. This was a powerful episode!!

[@dev5416]

i really needed to see this, pray for me, trying to submit myself completely as well battling with smoking weed and constant negative thoughts and mistakes..pray for me please, so happy for you brian all glory to god brother keep going! 🙏

[@mrs.nolanroadrunnercanyon5572]

Keep going Brian!! This was great!!! And all that you are experiencing now, THERES MORE!! There is more for the believer who keeps going! Don’t go back brotha! Thank you lord!

[@juniorbautista2888]

Man, perfect timing to seeing this video. I helped someone out the other day. Told me I was a blessing. For the $30 I gave him. Not knowing the man. He mentioned God was answering his prayer. It hit me. I love Jehovah! I have been distant. Now, I am getting back to changing my habits. Great listen CHAMP!

[@Mmafanufc12]

Happy for you Brian. Praise the lord ❤

[@zxrmxno]

Was listening to this podcast in the gym in Australia today! I immediately sent it to my sons - to also listen to I got up to the knife part in the podcast - when the fan came up This made me want to pull my headphones out and be present for people Very important 🙏🏾

[@WinterBellz]

Hey g, keep your head up, not even close to ending this shit, go through 🥶💜

[@HARLEYKRS]

Your words are inspirational brian . I'm so happy to see you in this new light .

[@Robin-yq4ro]

I definetly needed to hear this Amazing humility from. Always love it when someone who seemingly has everything the world could offer then accepts Jesus because he knows he's missing the ultimate Truth. Thank you guys great kingdom work. God Blless Subscribed

[@artgallardo8083]

Truth!

[@kendallpeone5781]

I’m excited to see my guy Brian Ortega in heaven. God knew he had a warrior in his kingdom when he created Brian. He just wanted to keep talking about our savior. I loved it. Hopefully he will continue to have some time for more podcasts. Safety and health to him and his family are in my prayers.

[@JoshGodoy81]

Awesome testimony brother. Life changing. Thank you for sharing

[@SarahRAgbayani]

Such a great podcast

[@closinginonclosure]

The real mystery is how Brian is the #3 ranked Featherweight when he's 1-3 in his last 4 fights, and that last win was the decision against the Korean Zombie in 2020. Khabib has been retired for 3 years and has a more recent win than Brian.

[@pustindoirier]

You must feel so stupid now

[@davidordonez211]

thank you for sharing your story brian, God bless!

[@jasonmontero8578]

Amen brother 🙏🏽 God bless you Brian, thank you for sharing your beautiful testimony. Jesus is the way, and nothing is impossible with him. I’m so happy for you and your family. Hallelujah!

[@CinematicTendency]

I’m very new to UFC. The funny part is that my very first UFC card was Brian vs Alexander the Great. I took my 7 years old son (who know practices BJJ) to the movie theater and we had a blast watching that card there. That Purge walk-in is memorable and his fight against Volk too.

[@dommelow2676]

That sounds really nice 😊

[@_Jdawg]

This real life stuff. Props to brian on this journey. Keep it up 💯

[@boosted_serg3278]

Thank you for sharing brian god is great 🙌

I hope God can reach out to Cain Like he did Ortega and help him with his legal battles we all make mistakes.

[@raysian7751]

I'm very happy for you Brian! This is the best chapter of your life! All glory to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!

[@DerrickWPritchard]

What a great testimony, theirs nothing more powerful than perspective, I can't think of anything more masculine or tougher than being a man of God. Praying for you T-City, nothing worth having comes with out sacrifice. 🙏✝️

[@tommymeier3117]

Praise God man…. In the Bible Jesus says, “I am the way the truth and the life” …. What is Truth? Is Truth outside of man? Is Truth something that as man we can grab onto… to instill it into our daily life… to live in an accordance to the truth… truth is designed to break any lie that has been fed to you… What is the opposite of truth? When we begin to break down the concepts to deep understanding… to understand that lies are something evil and destructive… that truth is designed for good even if it hurts… even though Truth is difficult and sometimes can be revealing of faults, it is necessary not only as an inner truth… but something that we can grab onto… something that we can base our life behind… follow truth… and when Jesus says that he is THE WAY. THE TRUTH. THE LIFE…. Dive into him. Trust him. KNEEL BEFORE TRUTH IN YOUR LIFE EACH AND EVERYDAY… IT IS AND FOREVER WILL BE YOUR PURPOSE… to find truth and to live by it…. FIND IT IN JESUS.

[@musicbyzachariah]

Y’all cut him off and joked when he was being serious a little to much. Other than that it was dope.
