This research aims to clarify the military chaplain’s Christian counseling method on moral injury (MI). MI is a psychiatric term that refers to psycho-emotional injuries occurring in military and battlefield situations. It is a generalized concept that has been used since 1994. MI refers to psycho-emotional, psycho-social, and psycho-spiritual damage that begins with disharmony and conflict that occurs when military personnel’s moral beliefs, faith, and values do not match those of people in power. MI causes a variety of psychological problems, including depression, anxiety, phobia, and trauma, stemming from feelings of betrayal, disappointment, frustration, guilt, shame, disgust, conflict, and anger. MI often appears in organizational cultures with strong vertical relationships, such as the military. MI mainly affects superiors and can be seen as a violation of the ‘duty of care’ of those in power and the ‘duty of loyalty’ of those who are ruled. Military chaplains are the psycho-spiritual experts of military personnel and can best handle MI. Resolving MI from a ‘care-based perspective’ requires the role of military chaplains. To deal with this effectively, group counseling is a good method, but the effectiveness of psycho-education at the platoon level can also be explored. Individual counseling can be the most optimal way to overcome MI. Accordingly, soldiers with MI need to strengthen their spiritual strength, such as prayer, and receive spiritual support counseling for psycho-spiritual resilience. When suffering from MI, the primary emotion is anger toward the person who committed the offense, but forgiveness is a major factor in Christian counseling and psycho-spiritual recovery.
