Pietism, also known as Pietistic Lutheranism, is a movement within Lutheranism that combines its emphasis on biblical doctrine with an emphasis on individual piety and living a holy Christian life.
The "Five Brothers of Württemberg Pietism": Johannes Schnaitmann (1767–1847), Anton Egeler (1770–1850), Johann Martin Schäffer (1763–1851), Immanuel Gottlieb Kolb (1784–1859) and Johann Michael Hahn (1758–1819)
Pietistic Lutheran frugality, humility, restraint, sense of duty, and order have been strong cultural and religious influences in Scandinavia.
Philipp Spener (1635–1705), the "Father of Pietism", is considered the founder of the movement.
