Revival Lectures by Charles G. Finney is a powerful and convicting call for true Christian revival. Finney, a leading figure of the Second Great Awakening, shares his firsthand experiences and biblical insights into the nature, necessity, and means of revival.
Far from being a passive event, Finney argues that revival is the result of God’s power working through the fervent prayers and obedience of His people. He speaks directly to believers, urging them to break up the fallow ground of their hearts, seek the Lord with urgency, and expect great things through faith. With clarity and conviction, Finney explains the conditions that lead to revival, the dangers that hinder it, and the practical steps that Christians must take to see the church renewed and sinners converted.
Originally delivered as a series of lectures to his congregation, this book remains one of the most influential works on revival ever written. It challenges both pastors and laypeople to examine their lives, pray with passion, and labor earnestly for the salvation of souls.
Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee? – Psalm 85:6
About the Author
One of the men most greatly used by God during America’s Second Great Awakening was Charles Grandison Finney. He was born in Warren, Connecticut, on August 29, 1792, and died in Oberlin, Ohio, on August 16, 1875. Charles Finney was married three times. He married Lydia Root Andrews in 1824, with whom he had six children. After Lydia died in 1847, Charles married Elizabeth Ford Atkinson, who died in 1863. In 1865, he married Rebecca Allen Rayl, who outlived him, dying in 1907. All three of Finney’s wives travelled with him as he preached. Finney was a devoted pastor, evangelist, revivalist, and abolitionist.
1 review for Lectures on Revivals of Religion
Charles Finney was a man greatly used by God to lead thousands to Jesus. He is sometimes misunderstood today by some who have not taken time to read his own words, but he has been a source of comfort and encouragement to many who have read his writings and have seen how God has used him. Finney was not a stranger to revival and the work of God in changing the hearts of individuals, families, and even entire towns.
Certainly Mr. Finney was human and so was not perfect in all ways, as none of us are, but
Charles Finney was a sincere believer in Jesus from whom we can learn much and whose life can inspire us to live more fully for God.
Read this book and be motivated to no longer be content in typical formality and theological pride, but may you learn to seek the fullness of life in Christ and long for true revival in our land once again.
