Christian piety
Godly religious devotion
Christian piety is devout religious practice and reverence toward God as expressed in the Christian tradition—prayer, Scripture reading, church attendance, and moral conduct flowing from faith.
The term can be neutral or carry a whiff of excessive display: Her Christian piety was evident in everything she did versus His Christian piety struck some as performative.
Piety here emphasizes the outward devotion and inner attitude that believers cultivate toward the divine.
