The principal religious innovation produced by the Kentucky revivals was the camp meeting.
The religious revivals that swept the Kentucky camp meetings were so intense and created such gusts of emotion that their original sponsors, the Presbyterians, as well the Baptists, soon repudiated them.
In 1839 J. Maze Burbank exhibited at the Royal Society in London this watercolor of "a camp meeting, or religious revival in America, from a sketch taken on the spot." It is not known where, when, or under whose auspices the revival painted by Burbank occurred.

On top of that was a serious recession, and continuing agitation by religious dissenters to end the state's Congregational establishment of religion, supported by the Federalists,with a new constitution.

 Lyman Beecher and the Problem of Religious Pluralism in the Early American Republic by Matthew Backes
The image of Beecher as a deeply conservative opponent of religious diversity is probably most appropriate to the period between 1815 and 1818, when he emerged as a leading proponent of state supported religion in Connecticut.
Until 1818, Beecher held this principle in uneasy balance with a defense of the religious establishment, as he regularly called for legal prohibitions against such sinful behaviors as dueling, swearing, and Sabbath-breaking but at the same time entreated individual Christians to defeat such sins through their own extralegal, voluntary efforts.
So in 1818, when disestablishment became law in Connecticut, Beecher leapt at the opportunity to embrace the voluntary system wholeheartedly: In a well-known about-face, the leading opponent of disestablishment suddenly celebrated the defeat of his own cherished cause.
