11 AM MST AND 6PM REVIVAL PART 3: THE 1700S IN AMERICA: Great Awakening
GEORGE WHITEFIELD AND DAVID BRAINERD and the Delaware Indian Revival

On November 20, 1745, Brainerd described the revival at Crosswicks, New Jersey.:

"Their pagan notions and idolatrous practices seem to be entirely abandoned.

They are regularly disposed in the affairs of marriage.

They seem generally divorced from drunkenness…, although before it was common for some or other of them to be drunk almost every day.

A principle of honesty and justice appears in many of them; and they seem concerned to discharge their old debts.

Their manner of living is much more decent and comfortable than formerly.

Love seems to reign among them"
