The preachers of the Great Awakening aimed to inspire a broad audience, including the general populace of colonial America, regardless of social status or denomination. They sought to awaken a personal relationship with God and emphasized emotional experiences over traditional rituals, appealing particularly to the marginalized and disenfranchised. Figures like George Whitefield and Jonathan Edwards delivered passionate sermons that resonated with individuals seeking spiritual renewal and a deeper faith. Their efforts contributed to a sense of shared identity and a questioning of established authority within religious institutions.
