The Great Awakening, a series of religious revivals in the 18th century, featured prominent leaders such as Jonathan Edwards, known for his fiery sermons like "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God," and George Whitefield, an evangelical preacher who traveled extensively and emphasized personal piety. Other notable figures included Charles Chauncy and Gilbert Tennent, who contributed to the revivalist movement.
