Description
Book SynopsisThe first book-length critical study of the theology of Charles G. Finneyârevivalist, professor, and president of Oberlin College.
Trade ReviewA valuable contribution to the study of Finney and American evangelicalism....Rigorous analysis of Finney's theological works... * Religious Studies Review *
Finney's life and work cannot be understood except in the light of his theology. David Weddle presents a complete examination of that theology in a clearly-written and relatively brief work. * New York History *
Weddle pursues his thesis with vigor and amazing detail....Excellent for providing a clearer understanding of the mind of Charles Finney....A must for anyone interested in 19th-century revivalism in general, and Charles Grandison Finney in particular. * Criswell Theological Review *
He gives us the most comprehensive extant analysis of the revivalist's theology....Should be extremely valuable to future historians of the revival. * Journal of the Early Republic *
