spiritual resilience

Inner faith endurance

Spiritual resilience is the capacity to maintain or recover one's sense of meaning, purpose, or faith through hardship.

It draws on inner resources—belief systems, practices, or connection to something larger than oneself—to endure suffering without losing hope: Her spiritual resilience carried her through the grief.

The term appears in psychology, chaplaincy, and self-help contexts.
