Move of God History: Recap

-U.S First great Awakening started after a call for repentance by the church in the 1700’s

-U.S. 2nd great Awakening stared after a call to repentance by those outside the church in the 1800’s. New converts.

-U.S. Revival broke out in early 1900 which also started with repentance after the San Francisco earthquake.

-Frank Bartleman printed a track before the earthquake called “The last Call” warning people to turn to God.

-Then after the earthquake Bartleman wrote a track called “The Earthquake” showing scriptures that show how God is in the earthquakes. Nahum 1:5-7. God is in the earthquake. God is good and knows them that trust him.

-This revival led to the Pentecostal movement we know today.
