Answer: D . the "Protestant work ethic"

Explanation:

The Protestant work ethic refers to the encouragement by Protestant leaders such as Martin Luther of Protestants to show their dedication and practice of Christian Protestant beliefs and values by working hard, with diligence and discipline in their vocation.

Instead of focusing on church attendance and rituals to acquire Grace, Protestants like the New England colonists therefore showed their faith and spirituality by their focus on hard work, frugality and diligence.
