**The dispensational movement was an urban, northern phenomenon **
During the rise of American fundamentalism and dispensationalism, urban pastors in the northern United States used dispensationalism as a way to teach the Bible and combat liberalism. This sociological development was influenced by figures like Spurgeon in London and Darby, who visited cities like New York and Boston. The movement spread through influential preachers like Dwight Moody, and became known as the Great Lakes Basin movement.
