The First Great Awakening, occurring between the 1720s and 1740s, was primarily caused by a decline in religious fervor and the rise of Enlightenment rationalism, leading to a desire for a more personal and emotional connection to faith. Key figures like Jonathan Edwards and George Whitefield emphasized heartfelt religion, which spurred widespread revival meetings and a renewed enthusiasm for Christianity.
