Reviving Religion: Revivals started in 1800 as a reaction to The Age of Reason. Started the Second Great Awakening which was more effective than the first. Camp-meetings: a group of thousands would go to encampments and listen to preachings all day for several days. Methodist and Baptist gained most followers. Peter Cartwright (1785-1872) was a famous Methodist known for being a very good preacher. Charles Grandison Finney most famous preacher. Led massive revivals in Rochester and NYC in 1830 and 1831. Feminization of religion: women most enthusiastic about religion. Denominational Diversity: What used to be Puritans were now called the "burned over district" Millerites, or Adventists, started in the 1830's and thought the world would end on October 22, 1844.
