Charles Grandison Finney (1792 - 1875) was one of the principle leaders of Second Great Awakening in the United States.

He believed in Christian perfectionism and was an opponent of the original form of Presbyterian theology.

He was appointed as a teacher at Oberlin College in Ohio, and eventually became its president, a position he held form 1851 to 1866. He remained a prolific writer and speaker until his death in 1875.
