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?
I believe the text favors answer A. Thank you, though.
You're welcome.
