The objective of this scoping literature review is to investigate: what is known about the connection between philosophical and spiritual worldviews and professional resilience in frontline social work and human services? Resilience is essential to these professionals sustaining practice during difficult times, and philosophical and spiritual worldviews are recognized as providing comfort and helping people function. The review showed that little is known about the role of philosophical and spiritual worldviews in the resilience of these professionals. We recommend that future research investigate whether engaging with the strength found in philosophical and spiritual worldviews promotes the resilience of these professionals
