Rick Shrader‘s Review:

I have a curious interest in Charles Finney and his ministry. First because there is no doubting his huge impact on American revivalism. Second, his name constantly appears as a primary cause of today’s misuse of methodology, invitations and easy believism. Third, I wish I had half his power in preaching.

I was disappointed with Edman’s layout and use of the material. It was almost impossible to know when Finney’s words ended and his own began. Also, no footnotes were given for the quotations, and I like to check on those.
