Apps
Sing Your Part is a free mobile app (available on Apple, Google Play, and your web browser). Select Faithful Stones Church during setup and you will have full access to Hymns of Grace on your device (Psalms of Grace coming soon).
In addition to digital hymn book access, Sing Your Part allows you to adjust the soprano, alto, tenor, and bass volumes to allow you to hear and practice individual parts. You can also adjust the key and tempo.
In the app you will be able to see the upcoming songs for each Sunday service and listen to/practice any that are unfamiliar to you (note: some songs we sing are not included in our hymnal and therefore will not be on the weekly list).

Books
Biblical Foundations for Corporate Worship - Scott Aniol
“Ever since Cain and Abel, God’s people have been asking, “What is the proper way to worship God?” In five compelling chapters, Scott Aniol explains that corporate worship theology and practice must be founded in the Word of God. There, we discover that corporate worship’s goal is communion with God through regular, weekly covenant renewal, wherein the entire congregation engages in dialogue with God in a meeting structured around the gospel, toward the goal of spiritual fellowship with God through Christ by the Spirit.”

Sing a New Song: Recovering Psalm Singing for the Twenty-first Century - Joel R. Beeke
“The book of Psalms occupies a unique place in Scripture, being both the Word from God and words to God from His people. Unfortunately, psalm singing no longer plays an integral part of worship in most evangelical churches. In this book, thirteen well-respected scholars urge the church to rediscover the treasure of the Psalms as they examine the history of psalm singing in the church, present biblical reasons for the liturgical practice, and articulate the practical value it provides us today.”
