Charles Grandison Finney

Charles Finney (1792-1875), an evangelist, theologin, and scholar.

Though originally a Presbyterian, Finney eventually became more of a congregationalist and often bears much criticism from conservative Presbyterians.

One issue which separated Finney from traditional Presbyterianism was his advocacy of Arminianism as opposed to Calvinism.
