Samuel Wigglesworth
Samuel Wigglesworth (1689–1768) was a Congregationalist minister and theologian whose An Essay for Reviving Religion articulated influential arguments for spiritual renewal during the early eighteenth-century American colonial period. His work contributed to the intellectual foundations of revivalism that would characterize the Great Awakening, emphasizing the necessity of personal conversion and ecclesiastical reform. Wigglesworth's theological writings reflected the broader Puritan concern with maintaining doctrinal orthodoxy while addressing the perceived spiritual declension of his era.
