The Great Awakening was a conflict in the religious ideas that changed the colonies in America from 1730's to the 1740's. This movement started when preachers went through one town at a time to spread their message of God and sins. Jonathan Edwards was a popular preacher who read sermons called "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God." Johnathan also made volumes of sermons, observations and journals. Johnathan expected his knowledge and telling of sermons would move people onto the right path in life and help them realize the outcome if they fail to acknowledge their sins. Edwards saw sin as worse than hell. George Whitefield began to preach in an very energetic way which further helped the spread of God during the Awakening in England and the colonies.
