Baptist Foundations in the South

The influence of the Great Awakening on revival among Baptists in America, 1754-1787.

The Baptists today are easily the largest Christian group in the southern portion of the United States. . . . The triumph of free-church principles in the Revolutionary era, the homogeneity of southern people, and the rise of the common man and the economically depressed in the South are among the factors which have contributed to Baptist growth in the region.
