Heyman reference

The article references a piece by Christine Leigh Heyrman to support the claim that the First Awakening was part of a Romantic movement in England, Scotland, and Germany. The Heyman article does not use the word romantic, but evangelical. It's not clear why this reference about the First Awaking is here. The article is about the Second rather than the First Awakening. There might be an argument that the Second Awakening was related to the Romantic movement of the early 1800s, but the Heyman article does not discuss that.

I agree. I went ahead and changed "Romantic" to "evangelical" .Ltwin (talk) 16:20, 5 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The Latter Day Saint Movement

The Latter Day Saint Movement happened around the Second Great Awakening. There's a mention of the movement but nothing else. Should there be more? Knotsworth (talk) 01:26, 28 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
