AB - The senescence has significance as the final developmental stage of life. People at senescence are desirous of spirituality more than any other developmental stages due to the occurrence of mental problems such as physical deficit, anxiety, sense of loss and depression, etc, as the unavoidable aging process. Accordingly, old people are influenced by spiritual matters more strongly than any other age groups. Spirituality relieves depression making their lives fulfilling as an element closely related to ego-integrity. Thus, spiritual well-being at old age could wield positive influence over a crisis of destruction of well-being by providing the goals, meanings and sense of integration of living. Like this, the weight and meaning of religious spirituality of the people at old age among life-span grow greatly in particular in individual lives. Christian spirituality enables wholistic ego-integrity through recovery of well-being state in the present site of living in holistic healthy and full centering around by God through the establishment of relationship with God. We can see those detailed examples through the lives of people in the Bible. They are showing throughly how they seek for the solution fighting ultimate problems such as meaning of life, pain, dying without giving up the hope for the bright future through the faith in God in the way of accepting themselves in the present. Today, as aging is so rapid in Korea society, an in-depth discussion on the mental health and spiritual well-being of the elderly in Christian counseling way is so desperate now than ever.
