Annotation	The speaker's recent work at the University of Southampton has focused on assessment of older people's strength of belief, the difficulties they incur in their journey of faith, and the support they receive from their churches. This fits in with work on bereavement and its links with depression as part of the ESRC Growing Older (GO) Programme. His Levison Lecture considers three strands of interest: psychology and religion; gerontology and spirituality; and religion, psychology and ageing. The four responses follow up on these themes.
