In this episode, I sit down with my friend and Mike Feenstra, a former dairy farmer who sold the farm and stepped into full-time ministry with Power to Change. We talk about what it really costs to follow Jesus in an affluent Western church, why money so easily becomes an idol, and how to think about business, generosity, and “Freedom 55” when eternity is real. Mike shares how he went to church for 40 years without knowing how to clearly share the gospel, what finally changed, and why he now lives with the finish line in view—raising kids, fighting sin, choosing a church, and reading the Bible with eternity in mind. If you’ve ever felt the pull between comfort and calling, this conversation is for you.

In this raw and redemptive conversation, I sit down with Sharmen Kimbrough — counselor at the Marriage Recovery Center and founder of Live Found — to talk about how women can heal after being married to a religious "man”.Sharmen shares her story of growing up under a controlling, legalistic father, marrying into the same pattern, and eventually finding freedom in Christ. Our conversation also digs into:- How legalism and “obedience culture” breed spiritual abuse- Why emotionally immature men hide behind Scripture and authority- What happens to a woman’s identity after years of control- How genuine faith, surrender, and inner work lead to healing- What biblical leadership and submission actually look likeIf you’ve ever felt trapped in a “Christian” marriage that crushed your spirit — this episode is for you.Enjoy-Kyle---*Sharmen Kimbrough Details:*Website: Https://www.livefound.org---🤝 If you're enjoying this content and would like to support the show, click the link below 👇 www.furiouslycurious.co/donate---📞 Interested in Kyle's Coaching, Recruiting, or Employment Opportunities?Text Kyle: 1-604-703-9045Email: kyle@furiouslycurious.coWebsite: https://www.furiouslycurious.co---*🎙 About The Show*Kyle Van Ruitenburg gets Furiously Curious with honest, raw, and sometimes laugh-out-loud chats about the stories, beliefs, and worldviews that shape how people see the world.From Business and Faith to Life and everything in between, no topic is off the table.---*Social Media:*Facebook: / furiouslycuriousshow Instagram: / furiouslycuriousco ---Do you know someone who would be a good guest for the podcast?

Dr. David Hawkins joins me to unpack one of the ugliest elephants in the sanctuary — emotionally immature and narcissistic men hiding behind faith and authority. We talk control masked as leadership, the psychology of “hopium,” and why so many Christian marriages quietly collapse under spiritual manipulation. This isn’t church-bashing — it’s truth-telling for men who actually want to grow up, take responsibility, and love their wives like Christ, not a dictator.We get practical—why accepting influence matters, why “sorry” without change is empty, what real interventions look like, and how to do the work. It’s blunt, faith-aware, and unflinching—but aimed at healing, not shaming.

This week, Gary and I unpack a wild mix of real-life moments — from dealing with angry customers and pulling pranks gone wrong to a deep dive into the “addition to reserves” fiasco. We talk patience under pressure, grace in business, and the fine line between being clever and being a clown. Faith, work, and a few barn-level laughs.Enjoy- Kyle---📞 Interested in Kyle's Coaching, Recruiting, or Employment Opportunities?Text Kyle: 1-604-703-9045Email: kyle@furiouslycurious.co---💸 Want to Support the Show?📩 E-Transfer: kyle@furiouslycurious.co🎥 Patreon: patreon.com/c/furiouslycurious (Watch behind-the-scenes footage & extras)---🎙 About The ShowThe Briefcase and the Barn is a weekly series of The Furiously Curious Show with business brains, barn vibes, and Christian roots.

Gary’s out this week, so I sat down with Mike from ARPA Canada to talk real life: why a good friend sometimes tells you not to add another hobby, how to actually find mentors, what servant leadership looks like in the church, and how a grueling Terry Fox ride turned grief into grit—and reminded us to lead from within, starting at home. We also touch the hot stuff—free speech, MAiD, civil courage—not as rage-bait, but as dads and Christians who want to stand firm, love well, and keep our priorities straight.Enjoy-Kyle---📞 Interested in Kyle's Coaching, Recruiting, or Employment Opportunities?Text Kyle: 1-604-703-9045Email: kyle@furiouslycurious.co---💸 Want to Support the Show?📩 E-Transfer: kyle@furiouslycurious.co🎥 Patreon: patreon.com/c/furiouslycurious (Watch behind-the-scenes footage & extras)---🎙 About The ShowThe Briefcase and the Barn is a weekly series of The Furiously Curious Show with business brains, barn vibes, and Christian roots.

This week’s episode is a bit of a mix — from communion and hyper-Calvinism to a murder mystery night and a mechanical bull. Gary and I talk faith, feedback, and a few laughs along the way.

We dug into foreign workers, hiring expectations, the so-called “housing crisis,” and whether parents should kick their adult kids out.

How do you stay grounded when life feels like a battle of its own?On September 27th, join Colonel Tray Ardese (Ret.) — former U.S. Marine F/A-18 pilot, Special Forces leader, and decorated Colonel—together with Kyle Van Ruitenburg, coach and host of The Furiously Curious Show, for an evening of real talk on leadership and life.Through stories of combat, courage, and faith, you’ll walk away with insights on:- Leading with courage under pressure- Building resilience in the face of adversity- Living with clarity and purpose in family, business, and community- How faith shapes decision-making when everything is on the lineThis is more than a conversation—it’s an opportunity to reflect, ask questions, and apply the lessons to your own journey.
I sit down with my friend and Pastor Matt Kean to process the shocking murder of Charlie Kirk.We talk honestly about what happened, why it hit so hard, and the bigger question: How should Christians respond when evil shows up like this?We wrestle through anger, fear, justice, and the reality of living in a world that’s under the sway of the enemy. Matt brings scripture, perspective, and some hard but needed truths. And at the center of it all—we come back to the gospel.I hope you're blessed by our chat.-Kyle---*📞 Interested in Kyle's Coaching, Recruiting, or Employment Opportunities?*Text Kyle: *1-604-703-9045*Email: *kyle@furiouslycurious.co*---*💸 Want to Support the Show?*📩 E-Transfer: *kyle@furiouslycurious.co*🎥 Patreon: *patreon.com/c/furiouslycurious* (Watch behind-the-scenes footage & extras)---*🎙 About The Show*Kyle Van Ruitenburg gets Furiously Curious with honest, raw, and sometimes laugh-out-loud chats about the stories, beliefs, and worldviews that shape how people see the world.From Business and Faith to Life and everything in between, no topic is off the table.---*Social Media:*Facebook: / furiouslycuriousshow Instagram: / furiouslycuriousco ---Do you know someone who would be a good guest for the podcast?
