The Great Awakening, the rise of fundamentalism and Pentecostalism, the emergence of Billy Graham all these developments and many more have given shape to one of the most dynamic movements in American religious history. Taken together, these turning points serve as a clear and helpful roadmap for understanding how evangelicalism has become what it is today.
