Congregation
• Members of the church– Focus was on the
congregation rather than the ministers• SGA was very democratic
because of this

Revival
• Common feature of SGA• Gathering where people
were “revived” or brought back to a religious life– Listening to preachers– Accepting Jesus
![Page 17: Chapter 7 Section 1](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56816569550346895dd7f7ba/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

How did the Second Great Awakening lead to the growth of new Christian denominations?
• Baptist churches grew because they reflected the evangelical zeal of the 2nd Great Awakening
