The term "revivalism" originated in the 18th century as a response to the religious awakening movements that swept through Europe and America. These revivals, typically led by itinerant preachers, sought to reignite the faith and fuel the spiritual regeneration of individuals and communities. The word "revivalism" emerged as a descriptor for these emotional, intense, and often fervent religious experiences, characterized by mass conversions, ecstatic prayer, and evangelical fervor. It became associated with Protestant and Evangelical denominations like Methodists, Baptists, and Presbyterians, and was often contrasted with the more established and liturgical forms of worship found in mainstream churches. Today, the term "revivalism" continues to be used to describe religious movements that prioritize emotional, experiential faith over theological or institutional orthodoxy.
