I'm gonna assume you want it on your index page and that at present time your index page displays full length posts. You will need to open your theme's Main Index Template file (index.php), search for the_content() and change it to the_excerpt. Voila... instead of having full posts on your front page, you will have excerpts. Of course, if you are using a caching plugin (such as WP Super Cache), you may need to dump the cache in order to see the changes.

Here's what my index.php consists of:
PHP Code:
get_header(); ?>
<div id="container">
<div id="content" role="main">
<?php
/* Run the loop to output the posts.
* If you want to overload this in a child theme then include a file
* called loop-index.php and that will be used instead.
*/
get_template_part( 'loop', 'index' );
?>
</div><!-- #content -->
</div><!-- #container -->
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
