This is the great nineteenth-century American revivalist Charles Finney's handbook on revival of religion, covering the full range of topics related to revival--from what a revival is and the place of prayer in revival, to hindrances to revival. Finney's work has been newly edited for today's reader.

Revival starts with one person. You. Charles Finney—who shook up nineteenth-century America with his preaching, earned the title Father of Modern Revivalism, and became the forerunner of revivalists like Dwight L. Moody and Billy Graham—knew a thing or two about revival. And he claimed it began not in the emotion of the masses but in the repentance of the individual. This new journal edition of a spiritual classic invites readers to record their reflections, thoughts, and prayers in response to Finney’s fiery words on how to experience revival. As you let his message soak in and interact with your life, you might find revival to be closer to home than you ever expected.
