Best Answer

It was more spread out socially than the first great awakening
It created a bunch of splinter churches (baptists)
It made religion more personal and emotional and less church based
People went to huge "revivals" where they set up camps in the woods and some guy would yell and everyone would confess their sins
They made social issues like womens rights and abolition part of religion
