Johann Arndt (1555-1621) German Lutheran theologian, churchman, and author of two devotional books which exerted a far-reaching influence upon the Protestant world.

In fact the 'Wahres Christentum' was the most used devotional book in German (and German-American) Mennonite families for over two centuries.
