The First Great Awakening took place between the 1730s and 1740s. This was a religious movement that appeared in Great Britain, while also impacting the Thirteen Colonies. The movement changed Protestantism by encouraging people to individual piety and devotion. One of the characteristics of this movement is that it crossed across denominational divisions, and attempted to reach all people equally. Some of the values of this movement are thought to have inspired the American revolutionists.
