Testing123, you have caught my interest. A new hymnal? Haven't heard of it. I'm not musicly inclined, but I've always enjoyed local church songtapes wherever they're produced.

Me too, brother Terry. I'm not exactly sure if this is breaking the guidelines on referencing BARM posts, but the new hymnal was mentioned in post #5 of "Quarantining the Supplement." Sounds very promising.

Any song tapes or should I say CD's?

Terry, I've always been fond of the style of music and recording that I think is particular to the Local Church. I don't exactly know how to describe it, but I haven't really encountered it elsewhere since coming out of the system. In the last several years, a group of LCers has been putting out cds with some great music on it. I'd recommend them:

I've heard about a new hymnal in the works, but quite honestly, things aren't as standardized as they used to be. Several new youth songbooks have been circulating in the past years, and some congregations sing out of them quite a bit. At least two congregations I am aware of have mostly dispensed with hymnals and instead use a projector to display words to hymns via Powerpoint.
