Asked by Mark
Camp meetings, like the one in the picture above, were thought to inspire which of the following?
(picture showing crowds of people gathered around people in a forest)
Men and women to give their lives to God **
Men and women to accept and pray for sinners
Men to treat slaves, women, and immigrants as equals
Women to assume leadership positions in the community
I believe it is A as these camp meetings hoped to "spark" more religious participation, but I'm quite confused by the term "give their lives to God" as it can be taken in a literal form.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Give their lives to God usually means to do God's work. This could include becoming a priest, nun, minister, missionary, etc.
Your answer is probably best, but it could be B. What does your text seem to favor?
