In this compelling episode of Fortitude Podcast, we sit down with South Dakota DCI Special Agent Brian Freeouf, a man who has spent his life fighting for the most vulnerable—often from the shadows.
From serving undercover to stop predators targeting children, to leading high-tech forensic investigations, Brian’s journey is anything but ordinary. But what makes this episode truly unforgettable isn’t just Brian’s career—it’s his heart. With humility, wisdom, and a deep reliance on God, Brian reminds us that true authority doesn’t come from a badge or title—it comes from walking faithfully with Christ.
You’ll hear about:
- His undercover work with the Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force
- How prayer and Scripture keep him grounded in darkness
- His experience as a leader at Fountain Springs Church and on youth mission trips
- His quiet morning discipline, life advice, and even his past as a DJ
- The verse that anchors his soul: Matthew 28:18–20 – “ALL AUTHORITY… I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS.”
This episode is a must-listen for parents, leaders, and anyone fighting silent battles. As Brian puts it, “Never miss a chance to say nothing… because God often speaks in a whisper.”
Bonus: Brian will be one of our featured speakers at the upcoming Son & Mom Night on Thursday, June 12th at Ransom Downtown, Sioux Falls—where his message will inspire a room full of families to live with truth, resilience, and holy courage.
Listen now and be reminded that there is strength in stillness, and that God is near to those who stand for others—especially when no one else is watching.
