OP watch some of Matt Risinger's videos. He's a home builder and has some great advice and he talks about brick homes in several videos.

TLDW: Brick is porous and will absorb some water so you need to leave an air gap to allow it to dry out and prevent moisture from sitting between your brick and interior walls. So if you want a strong wall with good insulation, it'll be something like Brick>Air gap>Waterproof house wrap>Foam insulating panels>Plywood>Studs and insulation>drywall
