Revivals of Religion is a compilation of twenty two lectures given by Finney beginning in 1834. Finney has two key ideas in his lectures. The first is that humans are responsible for and capable to respond to God. The second has to do with God’s way of working with humanity. Finney believes that God “makes use of the feelings of Christians”.

What a revival of religion is not--What it is--The agencies employed in promoting it.
When a revival is needed--The importance of a revival when it is needed--When a revival of religion my be expected..
What it is to break up the fallow ground--How it is to be performed.
By Charles G Finney
