==Early Life==

When Finney was two years old his family moved to upstate [[New York]]. He received his early education in frontier schools. While he was still a young man, Finney studied law and set up practice in Adams, New York. A book on law, Blackstone's Commentaries on Law, repeatedly mentioned the [[Bible]]. Blackstone referred to the Bible as the highest authority. Finney bought a Bible and was soon reading it more than the books on law. The Bible moved Finney deeply and on October 10, 1821 Finney became a [[Christian]]. He decided to witness for Christ instead of practicing law.
