religious awakenings
Faith-based epiphany moments
Religious awakenings are periods of intensified spiritual fervor, often marked by revivals, conversions, and renewed commitment to faith within a community or society.
The term most commonly refers to the Great Awakenings in American Protestant history—waves of evangelical enthusiasm that reshaped religious practice and social movements.
An individual may also experience a religious awakening: a personal spiritual transformation or return to faith.
