The revitalization of the Reformed Church in Timișoara under Pastor László Tőkés illustrates the role of religious renewal as a catalyst for political revolution. Amid systemic repression by the Ceaușescu regime, Tőkés fostered spiritual and civic awakening, transforming a marginalized community into a center of resistance. This case highlights how religious institutions, through revitalization and community mobilization, can act as agents of profound political change.
