WAKE UP YOUR RELIGIOUS SIDE...again

2nd Great Awakening
People are quickly changing from traditional congregationalists and anglicans, to evangelicalism and baptist. These two religions are growing fast. If you are interested in transitioning your religious ideals, there are camp meetings to assist you in converting through enthusiastic preaching and audience participation. Evangelical ideals favor the common people over elites, innovative organization, and free will.

Leader of the 2nd Great Awakening, Congregationalist/presbyterian minister

Reform Movements to come!
The Second Great Awakening is creating an urge to reform the United States. Reformers are beginning to advocate many social and political changes. One of the biggest ideas is abolition, which will even further separate the north and the south. Many more people seem to be rejecting slavery through the abolition reforms, and the south is not happy about it.
