#40: Learning to Grieve and Let Go

In this episode of the Rogue Five Podcast, join Matt and Steven as they confront one of the most avoided spiritual disciplines among men: grief. In a culture that teaches men to suppress emotion, perform strength, and medicate pain, we offer a better way of grieving through God's presence instead of numbing through sin.🎙️ What You’ll Hear in This Episode:- Why unprocessed grief leads to emotional dysfunction, addiction, and identity confusion- How Scripture and psychology agree: the body keeps score when pain is buried- What healthy, God-centered grieving looks like—and why Jesus modeled it- How culture distorts masculinity by glorifying stoicism and distraction- Why prayer is both spiritual discipline and emotional regulation- 5 practical steps to grieve biblically and walk in daily emotional freedom📖 Featured Scriptures:- Psalm 34:18 – “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted…”- Psalm 32:3–5 – David’s silence led to sickness, not peace- Philippians 4:6–7 – Prayer transforms grief into peace- Matthew 5:4 – Mourning is a conduit for comfort- Psalm 13:1–2 – Honest lament is still faith- Isaiah 61:1–3 – Beauty for ashes, joy for mourning- James 5:16 – Healing multiplies in community- Lamentations 3:22–23 – Mercy is renewed daily⚔️ Call to Action:Men, don’t medicate what God wants to mend. Real strength is found in surrender. Let God be your healer.👉Subscribe and follow the podcast on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music, and anywhere else you get your podcasts.Please email us at: [email protected], Facebook, Instagram: @Rogue_Five
