Episode notes

Justin Wren was bullied relentlessly. He fought back to claim his place as a UFC Fighter, but the demons still haunted him. Self hatred, exclusion, self-sabotage. He made several attempts to end his life, but through a series of coincidences that can only be described as divinely orchestrated, his time was not done. As the founder of Fight For The Forgotten, he has dedicated much of his life to serving clean water to the Pygmy people in the Congo. And over this past year, he has become a pillar of the Fit For Service Fellowship. I’ve had the honor of watching his giant heart continue to expand, and this gem of a human continue to shine his light for the world.
