You can really see this guy's growth. Dababy is getting bigger and stronger, Kevin is still being an alpha giga chad sigma male, and the farm is looking better than ever. Great job with everything. You have come a long way!
Also don't eat that apple or you and every generation of your species are going to be doomed for eternity. Why I put the apple here, you ask? For the lols child. For the lols

Hi Ben. I'm a 31 year old recovering alcoholic, drug addict and thief, I want to go back to school for zoology and do something similar to what you do.

I went from just thinking this was a funny channel and ben was just a jokester to realizing he is an incredibly loving, sweet and selfless person with a lot of passion and a clear purpose. Best channel on UA-cam hands down.
Better than most channels which simply create content on whatever is trending without caring about the resulting effects of their content (for example channels which exist simply to talk drama/gossip and hate on whomever is an easy or popular target). Uncle Ben is most definitely much much better than those kinds of channels, which make up most of UA-cam. What he does has a positive effect irl, and also on UA-cam and the viewers. A very wholesome channel by a very wholesome and admirable person. Very inspiring.
I remember that "how to survive a rhea attack" popping up on my recommended and I've been watching ever since! Congrats on 1 mil you deserve it and so much more.
Someone in Austin last night asked me if I would like a prayer said for anyone, I told them I would like Urban Rescue Ranch to be given one. Your an inspiration, thank you
I'm not a religious person, but your faith is so beautiful man. You were led to doing something so great and special, you took a piece of mistreated land and turned it into a place of safety and harmony. No matter what anyone believes, that's blessed.
You don't have to be religious to simply follow Jesus. I am always telling people religion is from the Devil not God. He is an angel to these little critters. "The Lord is good to all, and his compassion is over all that he has made." Psalm 145:9 I know God is smiling down on this young man.
@@AliceWonders22 usually when someone says they aren't religious, it usually means "i'm not going to believe in a cloud man that i can't see and i'd rather create my own future and my own fate instead of relying on forgiveness from someone that everyone pretends to somehow know everything about but there's no proof so them knowing anything is physically impossible so they're clearly lying and the entire concept of religion was obviously made to control people and create a business and a system based around it and none of it is actually real if you use your brain for 2 seconds and it really isn't hard"
I'm an agnostic but it made me so happy to hear your prayers getting answered and I'm glad the lord helped you fulfill your dreams. It's wonderful to see someone so joyous and proud of their hard work. You deserve all of the subs and way more. Congratulations!
So your god makes sure to help this guy but all kids that die daily of famine and illnesses that could be cured or corrected for a small amount of money? Why would your god make a bunch of laws and then reward people for ignoring them? If your god exists it really is all over the place.
I was raised atheist and have been always critical of religion, but I am just touched by how beautiful your faith is. Letting your faith guide you to become better person, making the world better. Not preaching your beliefs to others, but just doing gods work in your own fantastic way. Never change Ben!
What's this? A wholesome religious farmer who understands that not everyone might have the same beliefs? No really though, Ben. You're a fantastic person still for doing this sort of thing.
Glad to see UA-cam still prioritising top comments by who expresses 'respect for secular (read: atheist) beliefs'. You know why people tend to watch UA-cam? To vicariously experience something they don't have. This something (faith) is a little easier to obtain than most things you don't have in this world. Not because the path is easy, no. But because it's always open, and it's open (and frequented by) the poorest of the world. Religion is a system of control. Tell me, how is your self control? Praying for you 🙏
@@dextersynesterformerlysorb5334 you ever read a comment about how someone likes a youtuber because they don't push their views on others and immediately decide to start pushing your views on that person? thus giving your god and your fellow christians a bad image? yes, you have just done that.
Also, Ben was the most socially awkward dude back when he first started the channel. Then for whatever reason, he decided to take Kevin the irrationally angry murder rhea into the ranch and slowly becomes borderline psychotic and crazy, and I say that in the nicest way possible. He's aged ten years since Kevin came into his life, probably because Kevin abuses him on a daily basis lol
I remember watching that first short you posted and thinking "wow this guy is funny, i wonder what else he has posted" and binged most of your videos, I'm glad to see you trusted The Lord's plan, and that all is well. Thank the Lord!
Ben, when I first got the “how to survive a rea attack p1” In my recommended I had no idea what would blossom out of it. You have put so much effort into not only your ranch, but the channel. You deserve this so much and I’m proud to say I’ve been able to see the journey first hand. Thank you for all the content and congrats!
This is my favorite video he has posted, it’s awesome how he talks about what he does and how to do it and all the interruptions like the cold front, he gave the animals warmth, and with that he still worked on his job, what I mean is that this was such an incredible and inspiring video. We love you uncle Ben
Congratulations Ben. One million subscribers, an army numerous enough to take me on. Finally, a fair fight. See you on Fortnite, Ben. Bring your subscribers.
I’ll bring my friends, my friends will bring their uncles, sisters, step-bros. Eventually… you will be facing a harder challenge, we will defeat you, Kevin.
Bro I got big respect for this man's genuine wisdom and faith in all he does, it really shows through. Especially the bit about Man's first calling to take care of the Garden of Eden; there really is something inherently attractive about what he does and the more naturalistic life he leads.
I agree. I have always loved gardening and animals but never have I ever heard anyone say it like Ben did about Man's first calling to take care of the garden and the animals. That hit me strong...and in a much needed good way!
This is hands down some of the most wholesome and entertaining content on youtube. And yes you might be a tad cringe at times, but it's good cringe...dad joke cringe :D
This has been a long time coming. If anyone deserves success, happiness, a beautiful crack home, and a farm full of happy, healthy animals + 1 demon, it's you. Congrats on 1 mil subscribers, Uncle Farmer Dad Ben!
One thing though, if you're meeting your metrics, you aren't stealing from them, you're just working efficiently. Don't bend over backwards for our corporate overlords. Otherwise, good job Ben, you've done well for yourself so far, and you've definately put the work in to it.
Yeah, i hate this kind of corpo speech... its the same with my job (factory). The suits get very pissy when they "catch" us finishing a bit earlier than the exact second our shift officially ends, even if we have our quota fully met and our workspace cleaned and ready for the next shift... fuck those people. I mean, i am OK with my job, the production quotas are measured pretty tight already, but if you are smart, you get to work asap after coming in, shorten up your lunch break a bit and you can easily end and have somewhere from 20 to 40 minutes to clean the machines up without any rush and chit chat with the guys on the next shift. Its not like they havent raised our quotas multiple times over the years already, but they cant do it more because of laws about physical load on a person/day. TL:DR its just designed to make you feel like you did something wrong, even if its obviously bullshit.
Here is a concept: you can be well suited in one area, ie Uncle Ben meeting his metrics, and still be better suited in a totally different area, ie most farmers would have had Kevin steaks a long time ago.
What a wholesome story. It sucks you had to go through all of that, but it seems like you enjoy what you do now. Another great video! Have you thought of adding a sort of adoption option for animals? Not like actually taking them home, but someone can "adopt" and pay for the care of different animals on the farm without one-time donations.
Joining in shortly before the Crack house arc, it really has inspired me and motivated me with my own personal goals and desires. Ben has a unique charm and charisma that makes me watch every video without fail. Even on my roughest days seeing the animals thrive and grow alongside Ben and the community makes me smile.
I'm so proud of you! As the granddaughter of a farmer, this is what I want to do with my life. But, sadly I live in an area where an acre of land is ~$350,000 on the low end🙃 I live vicariously through you and help my grandpa raise cattle and pigs with my family all year long. Congrats on your success and I wish you the best for many years to come!
Uncle Ben, you have a powerful testimony! As a fellow Christian, this video truly inspired me, and I’m so proud of you for everything that you have been able to accomplish through the Lord! Keep up the great work and God bless you!
You made me realize that this was an option for me. I'm currently trying to become a mechanical engineer and now my dream is to get my degree, save up money, and then work on starting my own rescue ranch.
@zijuiy wttuy Faith from wherever it comes from is is a powerful guide. Some people do tarot, some read runes, some pray to god, some sacrifice to altars, some do affirmations whatever keeps humans hopes up
Takis Shelter is the best rescue!! Watch how he got started!! Its incredible! Just found this NUT!! I'm obsessed!! He's 🤣n a great guy!! Also....Jacob's Ridge Sanctuary!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣he also a NUT! Good luck!!😊👍❤
@zijuiy wttuy it seems to really help them though. I've been listening more carefully lately rather than rolling my eyes. You can at least interpret it as lessons from the past , and the lessons are actually quite accurate.
I'm currently in university mastering in conservative ecology and psychology and I have to say this is a channel that makes me want to become a conservationist more. Keep up the good work bro, I love the chaotic energy especially since it will bring more people into the field
I LOVE your story. I also asked God for my life's purpose. He answered and it hasn't been easy, but I'm happy I listened. My life is so much better now. You are an inspiration Ben because what you do is not easy.
This is why I love the urban rescue ranch, he's just so honest with us. Spending time doing everything he does just to fit it in to a 10 minute video. When I look at him I see true work and dedication in his eyes.
I have no idea why I started watching this channel, I have never seen anything near close to it. But oh my goodness I am happy I clicked… this is a gem
Congrats on a million Ben! Been watching your channel for a year and it's the only channel I've devoutly followed every single upload. Can't wait to set the Ranch grow more in the future!
I have only recently stumbled on these great videos and as a religious 22 year old university student, not knowing what my future will hold and praying that I will find my way. You have given me so much hope by telling how you came to be blessed by those great animals you care for and your rescue business after being through very tough and uncertain times. I just want to say thank you for inspiring me to continue hoping and praying that God will help me find my way.
Beautiful, Ben. It’s pretty rare to find people bear their reliance on Christ so surely on their sleeves online, but of course it’s a wonderful thing to do. When you first said, “He is risen”, I even thought you were just memeing Christianity, but I was really happy to see it was sincere. Much peace and love to you, fella.
Beautiful. I’m an atheist but I have so much respect for people who follow their hearts, faith and beliefs and have to strength and fortitude of character and mind to get absolutely wonderful things accomplished. You’re a beautiful person doing beautiful things! Thank you!
Yeah I'm agnostic but heavily respect other people's beliefs. When people like our friend Ben here are very open about their religion and use it to better themselves and their community but don't try to force it on others, I respect the shit out of that. Other people who shove it down everyones throats? Fuck them. But people like Ben are cool as fuck in my books.
Genuinely feel as if I am watching a friend I haven't seen in a while tell me about his life and how it all worked out. (Watched from the very beginning of the journey) hard to explain how glad I am for you man. Bless you and thank you for the content.
Congratulations & thank you Uncle Ben for the years of joy & inspiration & one of the most beautiful Easter messages I've heard. Many more years & blessings to you & your Little Garden o' Eden. ❤️🙏✝️
I commend you on your leap of faith. I lost a very close friend I considered more a brother to COVID. He was always asking me what I was waiting for and when I was gonna live my dreams. "You gotta live life now, cause you never know when it's just over." he would say. He died in September, I quit my job in December and started going back to school. I'm heading into the vet tech program at my community college, but I'm looking to apply it more towards wildlife rehab based stuff. After some research on April 1st I managed to pass my wildlife rehab exam and I guess that means I'm on my way to a much smaller scale of what you do. Thanks for the inspiration.
Ben, I hope you see this, you put the entire reason I watch your content into words. I jumped on about a year and a half ago now, I wasn’t a day one, but from my day one of watching you, I saw it, you didn’t care and were just going for it, something you wanted, maybe even going for something you didn’t even know you wanted. You have inspired me, I started making edits a few months ago. Keep going man, you’re an inspiration to us all. I love your content brother.
The story of how you started the Urban Rescue Ranch and where you started from could be a whole church service on its own. Congrats for achieving so much
There is nothing absolutely nothing like hearing God speak to you!!when u know u know u know!!I’ve strayed from where I once was with God but your story is inspirational!!
I’ve been really struggling trying to figure out where God wants me. Watching this reminded me it’s important to stop and listen. Thank you so much for everything you do. You are truly doing the Lords work. I hope you know the impact your making not only on these animals love but in your viewers.
Nothing but the hugest respect to you. I got into your channel about 6 months ago and anytime I'm feeling down I come here. Your entire channel is the epitome of wholesome, and I'm excited to see you on your way to make 2 mill and beyond.
I love when you can tell how much someone adores what they're talking about. congrats on the milestone and thank you for everything you've taught us so far!
I'm similarly non-religious/atheist/agnostic/whatevs but I appreciate the positivity you put out into the world and how you've used your faith to empower yourself to do so much good. I wish I could only ever encounter this side of religion because this is the best of it, what it can do for people's personal lives, and it so often gets drowned out by loud angry politicians who use it as a weapon to attack others rather than a tool to support and uplift.
But see that's the problem with religion innit? You don't need to be religious to be a good person, but only religion can make a good person into a bad person
@@DimT670nah, I’m a atheist but I guess those people would’ve been shitty regardless of religion. And people like Uncle Ben would’ve been loving and caring without it.
@@DimT670Nihilism can equally rot someone’s core; I’ve been down this road. Perhaps instead of blaming any belief system, people should be more cognizant of their own character that they project into the world and echo within themselves.
You're a MASSIVE inspiration! I can't tell you how much I needed to hear this right now Uncle Ben! I'm in a similar situation of aimlessness, dissatisfaction with my job, sadness and not knowing what to do right now! Also I've been kinda losing my faith and getting away from all of that, this is the first easter where I completely skipped church and dind't pray or sacrifice, but thanks to this video I can see how useful it is even if it was only a psychological tool, though I belive there is more there! Way to go! You really went from zero to hero in a year! Even the stuff you said at the end of just posting cringe videos and getting good at it as you go without being a perfectionist is something I needed to hear and see. Maybe I've just been overcome with emotion from seeing you work so hard and make all of this happen, but I really feel like God spoke to me through this video, the passages you shared really hit home, Thanks a lot for all you do you absolute Gigachad sigma legend!
It amazing to hear your testimony. God bless you! Keep growing in faith and let Him work throught and in you! Love your content and is of great happyness to see a brother in faith evolving in so many ways
Congrats uncle gamer Ben! It's so refreshing to hear someone talk about how God helped them, I've been going through a lot and hearing about what he's done for you strengthens my faith and gives me more hope. Love you uncle Ben, Happy Easter and God bless!
dababy at 7:00 is what motivates me to get out of bed in the morning because as long as this little man is looking at the camera like that i will have happiness
Ben your story is absolutely inspiring, especially since I'm going through what you once did and I still looking for my purpose. I love your videos and God bless you man.
Your channel is the only thing that helps me, ive been having a rough time and your videos let me take my mind off of things. I hope to have a ranch if i make it long enough to. Thanks for the content, i hope you and your animals live long happy lives
Uncle Ben is honestly one of the most wholesome channels you will find on UA-cam. It’s awesome to see how much he and his farm have progressed wishing Uncle Ben nothing but the best🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Ben, I wanted to say that you give me inspiration to do the things that I dream. In my life, the most vile people I have ever met have shielded themselves in the veil of Christ. This has left me with a sour taste in my mouth for Christianity. The way you speak and the things that you do have changed that view. Please keep doing what you do and spread love.
Hey I know nobody will really care, but these videos keep me going everyday and I get excited when he uploads. Thank you so much for making these funny but informative videos.
When I first started watching his videos a couple after the rhea attack one, I was down in a bad spot living on my friends couch. I feel like I’ve grown with him and a lot of the times just watching one of these videos helped through dark things. Where I’m at in life right now is the happiest I’ve been in 26 years and like he said. If you don’t have direction god will provide
I love how he's explaining this deep, meaningful story, and DaBaby is attempting to beat his ass the entire time. You gotta love this guy.

Jesus is alive and loves you very much, you should check the many NDE s People dying and meeting Jesus.
@@AliceWonders22 usually when someone says they aren't religious, it usually means "i'm not going to believe in a cloud man that i can't see and i'd rather create my own future and my own fate instead of relying on forgiveness from someone that everyone pretends to somehow know everything about but there's no proof so them knowing anything is physically impossible so they're clearly lying and the entire concept of religion was obviously made to control people and create a business and a system based around it and none of it is actually real if you use your brain for 2 seconds and it really isn't hard"
@@AliceWonders22 thank you and God love us all!!!
I'm an agnostic but it made me so happy to hear your prayers getting answered and I'm glad the lord helped you fulfill your dreams. It's wonderful to see someone so joyous and proud of their hard work. You deserve all of the subs and way more. Congratulations!
So your god makes sure to help this guy but all kids that die daily of famine and illnesses that could be cured or corrected for a small amount of money?
Why would your god make a bunch of laws and then reward people for ignoring them?
If your god exists it really is all over the place.

I was raised atheist and have been always critical of religion, but I am just touched by how beautiful your faith is. Letting your faith guide you to become better person, making the world better. Not preaching your beliefs to others, but just doing gods work in your own fantastic way. Never change Ben!
Congratulations little brother. It takes hard work to get where you’re at, and even harder work to hold onto it! Bless you for doing gods work.

Sweet message to his son
What's this? A wholesome religious farmer who understands that not everyone might have the same beliefs?
No really though, Ben. You're a fantastic person still for doing this sort of thing.
Anyone else read the top part in uncle bens voice?
He really is the most wholesome person really just makes me happy when I see a new vid out
Ben acts how religious people SHOULD act. Not pushing his views on others, but also not shying away from talking about what he believes.
Glad to see UA-cam still prioritising top comments by who expresses 'respect for secular (read: atheist) beliefs'. You know why people tend to watch UA-cam? To vicariously experience something they don't have.
This something (faith) is a little easier to obtain than most things you don't have in this world. Not because the path is easy, no. But because it's always open, and it's open (and frequented by) the poorest of the world.
Religion is a system of control. Tell me, how is your self control?
Praying for you 🙏
@@dextersynesterformerlysorb5334 you ever read a comment about how someone likes a youtuber because they don't push their views on others and immediately decide to start pushing your views on that person? thus giving your god and your fellow christians a bad image? yes, you have just done that.
It’s so amazing that you got here- you deserve it so much Uncle Farmer Dad Ben 👏
Uncle Daddy Ben is the best super cute built good
true
I mean…. It’s not that amazing, so many youtubers now reach 1 mil subs
@@imcontemptwithlife4155 how come you haven’t reach 1 Mil then?
@@caraccident5357 I don’t want to be a youtuber
Also, Ben was the most socially awkward dude back when he first started the channel. Then for whatever reason, he decided to take Kevin the irrationally angry murder rhea into the ranch and slowly becomes borderline psychotic and crazy, and I say that in the nicest way possible. He's aged ten years since Kevin came into his life, probably because Kevin abuses him on a daily basis lol
Lol true, just watching the comparison of how he looked a year ago, he looked so young 😂
I'm watching this after one finding his videos very recently, and holy shit he's actually aged ten years. Biggest glow-up.
Only recently started watching. Can't help but laugh. 😅😂🤣😳
God bless this handsome man and all his critter friends.
Your testimony was beautiful and brought me to tears when you talked about what the homeless man told you. You are truly an inspiration!
I remember watching that first short you posted and thinking "wow this guy is funny, i wonder what else he has posted" and binged most of your videos, I'm glad to see you trusted The Lord's plan, and that all is well. Thank the Lord!
''this place is gonna look like the Garden of Eden''
It may not look like it yet, but it definitely is for these animals. Thanks to you.
Ben, when I first got the “how to survive a rea attack p1” In my recommended I had no idea what would blossom out of it. You have put so much effort into not only your ranch, but the channel. You deserve this so much and I’m proud to say I’ve been able to see the journey first hand. Thank you for all the content and congrats!
I'm not a words person in this particular type of stuff, but... Blessed, my man, blessed. That's what I can say, lots of love to you and your animals.
@Lovely💞 cmon man
Hard work and dedication! You earned the amazing life you’re living!💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
This is my favorite video he has posted, it’s awesome how he talks about what he does and how to do it and all the interruptions like the cold front, he gave the animals warmth, and with that he still worked on his job, what I mean is that this was such an incredible and inspiring video. We love you uncle Ben
Agreed!
Congratulations Ben. One million subscribers, an army numerous enough to take me on. Finally, a fair fight.
See you on Fortnite, Ben. Bring your subscribers.
You're on Kevin. Uncle Ben army will crush you at Fortnite. You don't even have hands how can you play
I’ll bring my friends, my friends will bring their uncles, sisters, step-bros. Eventually… you will be facing a harder challenge, we will defeat you, Kevin.
Kevin you're a proper Star.

@@soupviolence7803 trust me, you don't want him to show you what them feet do tho
Bro I got big respect for this man's genuine wisdom and faith in all he does, it really shows through. Especially the bit about Man's first calling to take care of the Garden of Eden; there really is something inherently attractive about what he does and the more naturalistic life he leads.
I agree. I have always loved gardening and animals but never have I ever heard anyone say it like Ben did about Man's first calling to take care of the garden and the animals. That hit me strong...and in a much needed good way!
This is hands down some of the most wholesome and entertaining content on youtube.
And yes you might be a tad cringe at times, but it's good cringe...dad joke cringe :D
Did not expect you around these waters
Best vidya ever ❤ God always provides for his children. 🙏🏼
As a true hillbilly and Southerner, lemme just say: you never did and never could steal from your employer, Unca Ben.
This has been a long time coming. If anyone deserves success, happiness, a beautiful crack home, and a farm full of happy, healthy animals + 1 demon, it's you. Congrats on 1 mil subscribers, Uncle Farmer Dad Ben!
One thing though, if you're meeting your metrics, you aren't stealing from them, you're just working efficiently. Don't bend over backwards for our corporate overlords.
Otherwise, good job Ben, you've done well for yourself so far, and you've definately put the work in to it.
If Ben felt like it was stealing, it was stealing to him!
Agree if you can get the same work done in less time, who cares what you do with the extra time
Yeah, i hate this kind of corpo speech... its the same with my job (factory). The suits get very pissy when they "catch" us finishing a bit earlier than the exact second our shift officially ends, even if we have our quota fully met and our workspace cleaned and ready for the next shift... fuck those people.
I mean, i am OK with my job, the production quotas are measured pretty tight already, but if you are smart, you get to work asap after coming in, shorten up your lunch break a bit and you can easily end and have somewhere from 20 to 40 minutes to clean the machines up without any rush and chit chat with the guys on the next shift.
Its not like they havent raised our quotas multiple times over the years already, but they cant do it more because of laws about physical load on a person/day.
TL:DR its just designed to make you feel like you did something wrong, even if its obviously bullshit.
Here is a concept: you can be well suited in one area, ie Uncle Ben meeting his metrics, and still be better suited in a totally different area, ie most farmers would have had Kevin steaks a long time ago.
@@edme8865 yeah, he seems much happier doing this, and pretty well suited for it.
Did I accidentally imply otherwise in my comment?
This really touches my heart! You have a beautiful heart, Uncle Ben. God Bless You!
What a wholesome story. It sucks you had to go through all of that, but it seems like you enjoy what you do now. Another great video! Have you thought of adding a sort of adoption option for animals? Not like actually taking them home, but someone can "adopt" and pay for the care of different animals on the farm without one-time donations.
This almost sounds like a sponsorship in a way, but I think its a good idea. The real question is, how much does it cost to maintain Mr. Kevin?
Joining in shortly before the Crack house arc, it really has inspired me and motivated me with my own personal goals and desires. Ben has a unique charm and charisma that makes me watch every video without fail. Even on my roughest days seeing the animals thrive and grow alongside Ben and the community makes me smile.
Uncle Ben, a big thank you to not only everything you do for the animals but all the joy you provide us viewers. Here's to a million more!
Love that you aren't afraid to talk about your God experiences, super comforting to hear testimonies :)
God I love this man, he's both funny and responsible, this guy is gold. And Dababy is just the best. Congrats Uncle Ben!
I'm so proud of you! As the granddaughter of a farmer, this is what I want to do with my life. But, sadly I live in an area where an acre of land is ~$350,000 on the low end🙃 I live vicariously through you and help my grandpa raise cattle and pigs with my family all year long. Congrats on your success and I wish you the best for many years to come!
Ya i have the same but my grand mother i never met
Uncle Ben, you have a powerful testimony! As a fellow Christian, this video truly inspired me, and I’m so proud of you for everything that you have been able to accomplish through the Lord! Keep up the great work and God bless you!
He is risen indeed ✝️ God bless uncle Ben
Amen 🙏🏻
You made me realize that this was an option for me. I'm currently trying to become a mechanical engineer and now my dream is to get my degree, save up money, and then work on starting my own rescue ranch.
@zijuiy wttuy Faith from wherever it comes from is is a powerful guide. Some people do tarot, some read runes, some pray to god, some sacrifice to altars, some do affirmations whatever keeps humans hopes up
Takis Shelter is the best rescue!! Watch how he got started!! Its incredible! Just found this NUT!! I'm obsessed!! He's 🤣n a great guy!! Also....Jacob's Ridge Sanctuary!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣he also a NUT! Good luck!!😊👍❤
@zijuiy wttuy it seems to really help them though. I've been listening more carefully lately rather than rolling my eyes. You can at least interpret it as lessons from the past , and the lessons are actually quite accurate.
Congrats on having the courage to express your love of God, let’s hope more people your age follow your lead.
I'm currently in university mastering in conservative ecology and psychology and I have to say this is a channel that makes me want to become a conservationist more. Keep up the good work bro, I love the chaotic energy especially since it will bring more people into the field
I LOVE your story. I also asked God for my life's purpose. He answered and it hasn't been easy, but I'm happy I listened. My life is so much better now. You are an inspiration Ben because what you do is not easy.
This is why I love the urban rescue ranch, he's just so honest with us. Spending time doing everything he does just to fit it in to a 10 minute video. When I look at him I see true work and dedication in his eyes.
I have no idea why I started watching this channel, I have never seen anything near close to it. But oh my goodness I am happy I clicked… this is a gem
Congrats on a million Ben! Been watching your channel for a year and it's the only channel I've devoutly followed every single upload. Can't wait to set the Ranch grow more in the future!
I have only recently stumbled on these great videos and as a religious 22 year old university student, not knowing what my future will hold and praying that I will find my way.
You have given me so much hope by telling how you came to be blessed by those great animals you care for and your rescue business after being through very tough and uncertain times.
I just want to say thank you for inspiring me to continue hoping and praying that God will help me find my way.
Beautiful, Ben. It’s pretty rare to find people bear their reliance on Christ so surely on their sleeves online, but of course it’s a wonderful thing to do. When you first said, “He is risen”, I even thought you were just memeing Christianity, but I was really happy to see it was sincere. Much peace and love to you, fella.
is this a sign?
@@durere how so?
Beautiful. I’m an atheist but I have so much respect for people who follow their hearts, faith and beliefs and have to strength and fortitude of character and mind to get absolutely wonderful things accomplished. You’re a beautiful person doing beautiful things! Thank you!
i like how they don’t push their beliefs onto people. it just pushes everyone away and make people think christians (and all religions) are bad
Yeah I'm agnostic but heavily respect other people's beliefs.
When people like our friend Ben here are very open about their religion and use it to better themselves and their community but don't try to force it on others, I respect the shit out of that.
Other people who shove it down everyones throats? Fuck them.
But people like Ben are cool as fuck in my books.
9:26 W + Dub + Did Ask + Do Care + We Knew (Long time fans atleast) + We love you
8:05 Wow that brought me to tears suddenly and swiftly....
Genuinely feel as if I am watching a friend I haven't seen in a while tell me about his life and how it all worked out.
(Watched from the very beginning of the journey) hard to explain how glad I am for you man. Bless you and thank you for the content.
Congratulations & thank you Uncle Ben for the years of joy & inspiration & one of the most beautiful Easter messages I've heard. Many more years & blessings to you & your Little Garden o' Eden. ❤️🙏✝️
I commend you on your leap of faith. I lost a very close friend I considered more a brother to COVID. He was always asking me what I was waiting for and when I was gonna live my dreams. "You gotta live life now, cause you never know when it's just over." he would say. He died in September, I quit my job in December and started going back to school. I'm heading into the vet tech program at my community college, but I'm looking to apply it more towards wildlife rehab based stuff. After some research on April 1st I managed to pass my wildlife rehab exam and I guess that means I'm on my way to a much smaller scale of what you do. Thanks for the inspiration.
I’m watching this nearly a year later and wow, you’ve come a long way uncle Ben. God takes care of those who fear and love him.
That's an amazing story ben, it gives me hope.
Ben, I hope you see this, you put the entire reason I watch your content into words. I jumped on about a year and a half ago now, I wasn’t a day one, but from my day one of watching you, I saw it, you didn’t care and were just going for it, something you wanted, maybe even going for something you didn’t even know you wanted. You have inspired me, I started making edits a few months ago. Keep going man, you’re an inspiration to us all. I love your content brother.
The story of how you started the Urban Rescue Ranch and where you started from could be a whole church service on its own. Congrats for achieving so much
There is nothing absolutely nothing like hearing God speak to you!!when u know u know u know!!I’ve strayed from where I once was with God but your story is inspirational!!
I’ve been really struggling trying to figure out where God wants me. Watching this reminded me it’s important to stop and listen. Thank you so much for everything you do. You are truly doing the Lords work. I hope you know the impact your making not only on these animals love but in your viewers.

I love when you can tell how much someone adores what they're talking about. congrats on the milestone and thank you for everything you've taught us so far!
I'm similarly non-religious/atheist/agnostic/whatevs but I appreciate the positivity you put out into the world and how you've used your faith to empower yourself to do so much good. I wish I could only ever encounter this side of religion because this is the best of it, what it can do for people's personal lives, and it so often gets drowned out by loud angry politicians who use it as a weapon to attack others rather than a tool to support and uplift.
But see that's the problem with religion innit? You don't need to be religious to be a good person, but only religion can make a good person into a bad person
@@DimT670 What? So atheist pedophiles aren't bad people?
@@DimT670nah, I’m a atheist but I guess those people would’ve been shitty regardless of religion. And people like Uncle Ben would’ve been loving and caring without it.
@@DimT670Nihilism can equally rot someone’s core; I’ve been down this road. Perhaps instead of blaming any belief system, people should be more cognizant of their own character that they project into the world and echo within themselves.

I can't tell you how much I needed to hear this right now Uncle Ben!
I'm in a similar situation of aimlessness, dissatisfaction with my job, sadness and not knowing what to do right now!
Also I've been kinda losing my faith and getting away from all of that, this is the first easter where I completely skipped church and dind't pray or sacrifice, but thanks to this video I can see how useful it is even if it was only a psychological tool, though I belive there is more there!
Way to go! You really went from zero to hero in a year!
Even the stuff you said at the end of just posting cringe videos and getting good at it as you go without being a perfectionist is something I needed to hear and see.
Maybe I've just been overcome with emotion from seeing you work so hard and make all of this happen, but I really feel like God spoke to me through this video, the passages you shared really hit home, Thanks a lot for all you do you absolute Gigachad sigma legend!
Praying for you

Congrats uncle gamer Ben! It's so refreshing to hear someone talk about how God helped them, I've been going through a lot and hearing about what he's done for you strengthens my faith and gives me more hope. Love you uncle Ben, Happy Easter and God bless!
Congrats uncle Ben I actually remember when the how to survive a reha attack video got recommended to me and I have watched every video since.
this guy and all the people that help him have saved so many lives, its crazy how quick things change and happen.
dababy at 7:00 is what motivates me to get out of bed in the morning because as long as this little man is looking at the camera like that i will have happiness

Ben, I wanted to say that you give me inspiration to do the things that I dream. In my life, the most vile people I have ever met have shielded themselves in the veil of Christ. This has left me with a sour taste in my mouth for Christianity. The way you speak and the things that you do have changed that view. Please keep doing what you do and spread love.
Hey I know nobody will really care, but these videos keep me going everyday and I get excited when he uploads. Thank you so much for making these funny but informative videos.
Your story and testimony is awesome and really inspiring. All glory to God!
When I first started watching his videos a couple after the rhea attack one, I was down in a bad spot living on my friends couch. I feel like I’ve grown with him and a lot of the times just watching one of these videos helped through dark things. Where I’m at in life right now is the happiest I’ve been in 26 years and like he said. If you don’t have direction god will provide
THIS IS WHAT CHRISTIANITY IS! THIS IS WHAT CHRISTIANITY SHOULD BE! I'm not really religious but you are the definition of a good christian man.
