Revivals of the 19th Century
Church HistorySteve Gregg
Steve Gregg discusses the "Revivals of the 19th Century", where powerful religious movements emerged across the United States. These revivals, often marked by camp meetings and emotional experiences, sought to convert individuals and change society as a whole. Notable figures in these revivals include Barton Stone, Charles Finney, and Phoebe Palmer, who preached and inspired large-scale conversions. While some controversial beliefs and practices arose during these revivals, they ultimately had a significant impact on American Protestantism and the development of social reform movements.
