The [[Gilded Age]] plutocracy came under harsh attack from the [[Social Gospel]] preachers and with reformers in the [[Progressive Era]]. Historian [[Robert Fogel]] identifies numerous reforms, especially the battles involving child labor, compulsory elementary education and the protection of women from exploitation in factories. <ref>Fogel p 108</ref>  The most powerful force was a crusade for the prohibition of alcohol. The major pietistic Protestant denominations all sponsored growing missionary activities inside the United States and around the world. Colleges associated with denominations rapidly expanded in number, size and quality of curriculum. The [[YMCA]] became a force in many cities, as did denominational youth groups such as the [[Epworth League]] (Methodist) and the [[Walther League]] (Lutheran).

Im (2000) compared the evangelistic method and results of the Third Great Awakening in America with the Korean revivals of 1884-1910. Many techniques of the Second and Third Great Awakenings were transposed from America to Europe, including the circuit-riding system of the Methodists, the Baptist farmer preachers, the campus revivals of the eastern seaboard, the camp meetings in the West, the new measures of [[Charles G. Finney]], the Layman's Prayer Revival, urban mass revivalism of [[D. L. Moody]], and the Student Volunteer Movement.  Im discovered four areas of influence from a comparison and analysis of the two countries' revivals: the establishment of tradition, the adoption of similar emphases, the incorporation of evangelistic methodologies, and the observation of the results of the revivals. The American revivals had a major influence on the Korean revivals, and the American revival tradition and enthusiasm toward missions helped Korean Christians develop their own religious experience and tradition. This tradition has influenced Korean churches even into the 21st century.<ref> Im (2000)</ref>
