The Second Great Awakening

Much of the impulse toward reform was rooted in the revivals of the broad religious movement that swept the United States after 1790, known as the great awakening. Charles Grandson Finney and his peers were enfolded in the Second Great Awakening. They rejected the 18th century Calvinistic belief that God determined whether a person went to hell or heaven. Religious ideas in the early 19th century promoted individualism and responsibility. People started to drift away from the church because of these new ideas. Revivalism was also apart of the Second Great Awakening. The preachers who rejected the way the bible taught things and as well as started to open peplos's thoughts about other things, the church wanted a way to bring people back to it. So they came up with the idea of revivals. A revival was an emotional meeting designed to awaken religious faith through impassioned preaching and prayer. The second great awakening also brought Christianity on a large scale to enslaved African Americans. The Second Great Awakening revolutionized the American religious tradition.
