He joined other pastoralists César Malan, Guers, Ami Bost and other no less absolute in their beliefs, and desiring to live pure lives and they taught that the absolute truth of all that is written in the Bible. This movement was called ''Le Réveil'' (The Awakening) His ideas had a profound effect on Alexander I of Russia and for a time he became a confidant of the emperor's most secret thoughts.
