Pietism: Private Faith and Public Witness (Summer 1990)

“Pietism is not privatism,” writes Peter Sandstrom in Pietisten (spring 1989), in “Spener’s Proposals, Part III.” Citing “the establishment of benevolent work” by early pietists and “the widespread development of active mission societies,” he says, “it is this emphasis upon practice that helps make pietism a ‘life movement.’”
