Instead of breaking up the First and Second Great Awakenings into discrete events, we might see the century from the 1740s (the emergence of the Separate Baptists) to the 1840s (the sectional division of the Baptists) as a unified whole, because there were significant revivals happening among the Baptists and other evangelicals throughout this period. Baptists certainly saw massive stirs in the early 1800s, but those events did not necessarily exceed the ferment of awakenings that happened in the 1780s, 1820s, or 1830s.
