What influence does pietism have on modern-day Lutheranisms?

> This topic is an expansion of a question on the English Stack > Exchange . What influence does pietism have on modern-day Lutheranisms? ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Although I am aware that pietism has contributed positively to Lutheranism and other denominations of Christianity, I am going to focus narrowly on Lutheranism to keep this question in specific scope. The answer may discuss: - the change in attitudes towards religion between Lutheran Orthodoxy and Pietism - the change in attitudes towards religion between Pietism and Enlightenment Rationalism - why Pietism is generally ***not*** a derogatory term, but merely describes a different thinking pattern - how to identify a display of Pietistic behavior in a Pietistic Lutheran church, and how to distinguish it from one that focuses on Lutheran Orthodoxy or Enlightenment Rationalism
