True

Redemptive social movements are usually religious in nature and only have a limited focus. It aims to radically change an individual’s behavior thus changing the entire person. Examples of redemptive movements are fundamentalist religious movements and cults. In some religions, there is an emphasis on being "born again". This state implies that a complete individual transformation or a radical inner change is expected from the person. Perhaps the best example would be the spread of Christianity all over the world through the work of missionaries.
