The First Great Awakening (1730s-1740s) emphasized personal religious experience and challenged traditional church authority, leading to the rise of new denominations like Methodism. The Second Great Awakening (early 19th century) focused on social reform and moral renewal, promoting individual responsibility and activism in causes like abolitionism and temperance.
