About this listen

Sydney Ahlstrom refers to the First Great Awakening as “America’s conversion experience.” This profound revival did more to create a single national identity than any military or commercial venture ever could. Thirteen separate colonies would unite under the banner of the United States only after God’s Spirit swept the land and created a bond that had previously been non-existent. Spiritual awakening produces political unity.
