This article is about the general process of religious reform. For other uses, see Reform (disambiguation) § Religion.
A religious reform (from Latin re-: "back, again", and formare: "to form"; i.e. put together: "to restore, reconstruct, rebuild") aims at the reform of religious teachings. It is not to be confused with an organizational reform of a religious community, though mostly this is a consequence of a reform of religious teachings.
