"New Light Ministers"
"Old Lights."
From the 1720s through the 1740s a religious revival came (the great awakening) IN New England and the middle colonis ministers called for a new birth a return to the strong faith of earlier days > Johnathon Edwards and George Whitefield were 2 great preachers for the great awakening. The Great Awakening led to the formation of many new churches
The Great Awakening stirred many, but not all, colonists. The Great Awakening had great effect on the Prebyterian Church in the middle colonies. Traditional and evangelical ideas were in conflict even in these remote frontier regions. Frontier missionary Charles Woodman tried to fight the changes brought about the Great Awakening. (Got this straight from the book) Hope this helps! :)
The Great Awakening was important,because it was when religious freedom was there
the great awakening
New light
Ministers who opposed the Great Awakening were known as "Old Lights." They believed in traditional religious practices and doctrine and were critical of the emotional and dramatic nature of the revival movement.
The ministers of the Great Awakening preached that salvation could only be gained through the acceptance of God's grace and the confession of sins.

Great Awakening ministers introduced a new form of preaching called "evangelicalism," which emphasized emotional and personal experiences of faith over traditional church doctrines and rituals. They aimed to inspire a spiritual renewal and awaken a personal connection with God in their congregations.
