About the Author
Born in Connecticut in 1792, Finney was nearly thirty years of age before he turned from his skepticism regarding Christianity and wholeheartedly embraced the Bible as the true Word of God. He gave up his law profession in order to spread the Gospel and soon became the most noteworthy revivalist of the nineteenth century Second Great Awakening. In 1835, upon the request of Arthur Tappan, Finney established the theology department at Oberlin Collegiate Institute (today known as Oberlin College). He served there as a professor of theology as well as pastor of Oberlin's First Congregational Church until a few years before his death. In August of 1875, Finney died in Oberlin following a heart ailment.

Powerful book,

This review is from: Experiencing The Presence Of God (Paperback)
This book contains a nice collection of many of Finney's sermons. I was inspired by the first few chapters on the power of the Holy Spirit. This book can be intense at times, but Finney did preach a hard hitting message that many are not used to today. I regret that many of the messages have been abridged, but the essential information is there, and it is written in more modern terms. I recomend this book to any one who wants live a life that brings glory to God, and wants to witness with power.

Best Christian teaching I've ever read,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Experiencing The Presence Of God (Paperback)
This has to be the most confronting and challenging Christian book I've ever read. Mr Finney deals with so many issues, from how to present the gospel to the unsaved, how to have a revival, and deals with sin in Christians' lives. His teachings on sin I had never come accross before and exposed the extreme and errors to which the modern church era has taken the grace of God. This is a must book for every Christian who is serious about walking in God's presence.
