Great Awakening: The Great Awakening was a series of religious revivals in the North American British colonies during the 17th and 18th Centuries.

4) The Great Awakening was a spiritual renewal that swept the American Colonies, particularly New England, during the first half of the 18th Century. In late 17th Century England, fighting between religious and political groups came to a halt with the Glorious Revolution of 1688, an event which established the Church of England as the reigning church of the country. The Awakening’s biggest significance was the way it prepared America for its War of Independence. In the decades before the war, revivalism taught people that they could be bold when confronting religious authority and that when churches weren’t living up to the believers’ expectations, the people could break off and form new ones.…

In the New Testament, the church can be referred to as the “local” church or the “universal” church. The local church is a place where assemblies of believers come together at a particular location and time. The universal church refers to the body of Christ. Many churches believe that they are healthy because they have a certain number of people on their membership roll. Healthy churches measure their spirituality according to God’s Word. This paper seeks to convey that healthy churches are measured in spiritual terms versus numerical terms; follow biblical instead of cultural patterns of ministry; are based on theological instead of sociological foundations; focus on ministry not a marketing model; and adopt scriptural not secular models of leadership. This will be done by examining Kenneth Gangel’s discussion on the different marks that can be used to gauge a healthy church in his article “The Marks of a Healthy Church.”…

The Second Great Awakening was a spiritual resurgence that saw early Americans dedicate themselves not only to Christian ideals but also to freeing the slaves. The northern wing of the Second Great Awakening led to social reform (387). It was characterized by large camp meetings where the ideals of egalitarianism, a belief in human equality, were exposed to the masses of people who attended. These meetings were highly attended and promoted a sense of community and social discipline (383). One of these areas of egalitarianism gave rise to the abolition movement (Religious Transformation).…
