The GRIEVE Coach: Losing His 4-Year-Old Granddaughter & Creating Real Tools for Faith-Filled Grief Healing | Bradley Vinson Interview
What happens when the worst day of your life becomes the catalyst for helping thousands heal?
In this powerful interview on Rescue Rebuild Restore, Suzanne Burns sits down with Bradley Vinson — known as The GRIEVE Coach — a devoted husband, father of three, and grandfather of five whose world changed forever after the tragic loss of his 4-year-old granddaughter, Alanna.
Bradley opens up about how that heartbreak redirected his ministry and led him to create The GRIEVE Method® and The HELP Method® — practical, action-step toolkits that bring real hope to those walking through grief. Together, Suzanne and Bradley explore self-care for the grieving, the unique pain of grieving grandparents and men, couples navigating loss together, suicide intervention, and how biblical truth meets raw grief in the trenches.
As a Fire & Police Chaplain, Emergency Crisis Response Chaplain, keynote speaker, trainer, and author, Bradley shares stories from the front lines of bereavement care and the organizations he serves with, including Camp Agape, Texas Grandparents Raising Grandchildren, and Compassionate Friends.
If you’ve ever felt alone in your grief, wondered how to support someone in pain, or needed permission to grieve well while holding onto faith — this conversation will meet you right where you are.
Bradley’s journey proves that God can take our deepest sorrow and turn it into a ministry of restoration.

This wasn’t instant; it was learned over time through dependence, not self-reliance. Suzanne shares extended reflections from her own crisis at Foundation House, plus the inspiring journey of resident Elena, who moved from paralyzing fear and shame to claiming Christ’s strength in court dates, cravings, and rebuilding moments.If anxiety keeps knocking—financial worry, trauma triggers, ministry burnout, or fear of the future—this episode shows: Christ’s strength covers “all this.” Contentment grows progressively as you depend on Him, turning fear into testimony.Open Philippians 4 one more time and step into the secret today.Get the full book Fearless in Faith: Paul’s Prison Secret to Overcoming Anxiety and Fear Through Unshakeable Contentment on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GM9YVXSY?ref_=cm_sw_r_ffobk_cso_cp_mwn_dp_6H93EN9EYF89EMYGCK9X_1&bestFormat=trueIf this series has encouraged you, subscribe for more Rescue Rebuild Restore content, hit the bell 🔔, like the video, and comment below: What’s one fear you’re learning to hand over to Christ’s strength?
