Summary

In the 1730s and 1740s, a religious revival known as the Great Awakening swept across the colonies. Appealing to people's emotions rather than their intellects, evangelical preachers traveled from town to town, fueling a wave of religious enthusiasm. Many Americans supported the Great Awakening, arguing that it modernized Christian doctrine and brought many followers to the Church. But many other Americans criticized the Great Awakening, arguing that it undermined traditional Christian doctrine and divided congregations. Did the Great Awakening benefit or endanger colonial America?

This eBook examines the Great Awakening and delves into the pro and con arguments that surrounded it. It includes a timeline, primary sources, a bibliography, and a "Learn More About" chapter with more information on the topic.
