Abstract

[From the late 1720s to the 1760s a wave of religious enthusiasm swept irregularly over large regions of the colonies. It was part of a much broader movement, an evangelical upsurge, taking place simultaneously in England, Scotland, and Germany. Known as the -Great Awakening, the movement began as early as the 1720s among New Jersey congregants of the Dutch Reformed church led by Theodore Frelinghuysen. About the same time, William and Gilbert Tennent spurred a similar revival among New Jersey Presbyterians. In 1734, Jonathan Edwards began preaching a powerful message of revival to Congregationalists in the Connecticut River valley of Massachusetts.]
