No history of American Christianity can omit the life and theology of Charles Finney. He is one of the most recognized—and controversial—evangelists, theologians, and preachers of the nineteenth century, and was the strongest voice of the Second Great Awakening. He promoted spontaneous and extemporaneous preaching, emphasized authentic and emotional expressions of faith, and established the principles and practices of revival which have become commonplace in American Christianity. Finney’s name is still regularly woven into modern theological discourse, testifying to his impact on the history of American Christianity.
The 6-volume Charles Finney Collection from Logos includes all of Finney’s lectures on revivals, including his famous lecture, “How to Promote a Revival,” his Lectures on Systematic Theology and Lectures to Professing Christians, along with two volumes of his sermons. What’s more, with the power of your digital library, the entire Charles Finney Collection is fully searchable and easily accessible. Scripture references are linked to your favorite Bible translations and original texts, and important theological concepts are linked to dictionaries, encyclopedias, and the wealth of resources in your digital library.
