Beginning in 1726, a great, spiritual awakening engulfed the American colonies with entire towns repenting and turning to God.

The Great Awakening ignited a powerful anti-slavery movement that resulted in America's Founding Fathers turning against slavery at a time that it was accepted and practiced in Africa, Asia, the Middle East and most of the world.
