You may have heard of the “Second Great Awakening” — but what exactly was it, and why does it matter? In this video, we’ll objectively break down what the Second Great Awakening was, when it happened, where it spread, what it led to, and why it still matters today.

The Second Great Awakening was a large Protestant Christian revival in the United States from roughly the 1790s to the 1840s. It emphasized personal conversion, emotional religious experiences, and the belief that individuals could choose salvation through free will. This marked a shift away from earlier ideas like predestination and made religion more personal and accessible to everyday people.
