""As I wrote in my endorsement for Let Us Draw Near, 'Ron's book will serve pastors, music leaders, musicians, and church members as a resource on worship for decades to come.' But in The New and Living Way: Invitation to Bible Worship, Ron has taken all that makes Let Us Draw Near so helpful and packaged it in a more concise and accessible format, including questions to spur reflection and stories of teaching this material in other countries. This is a book that will benefit anyone who reads it."" --Bob Kauflin, from the foreword Praise for Let Us Draw Near ""As we seek to train students from around the world in transcultural principles of worship, we've always relied on Ron Man's insightful, biblical instruction and his global experience as a missionary and ethnodoxologist."" --Robin Harris, president, Global Ethnodoxology Network ""Man has accessibly woven biblical, historical, and theological material together for readers, while also supporting their responsible discernment of a biblical vision of worship practice."" --Emily Snider Andrews, Executive Director, Center for Worship and the Arts, Samford University ""While he expertly teaches about worship, Man masterfully guides the reader through biblical, theological, historical, cultural, and global tributaries that engage the reader to respond as worshipers of Jesus Christ, to the glory of God the Father in the power of the Holy Spirit."" --Joseph R. Crider, Dean of the School of Church Music and Worship, Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary
