Story
Freemasonry, though not a religion, is essentially religious. Most of its legends and allegories are of a sacred nature; much of it is woven into the structure of Christianity. We have learned to consider our own religion as the only inspired one, and this probably accounts for much of the misunderstanding in the world today concerning the place occupied by Freemasonry in the spiritual ethics of our race. A religion is a divinely inspired code of morals. A religious person is one inspired to nobler living by this code. He is identified by the code, which is his source of illumination.

Founded in London in 1717 as a way of binding men in fellowship, Freemasonry proved so addictive that within two decades it had spread across the globe. Masonic influence became pervasive. Under George Washington, the Craft became a creed for the new American nation. Masonic networks held the British empire together. Under Napoleon, the Craft became a tool of authoritarianism and then a cover for revolutionary conspiracy. Both the Mormon Church and the Sicilian mafia owe their origins to Freemasonry.

Whenever we worry about what to eat, how to love, or simply how to be happy, we are worrying about how to lead a good life. No goal is more elusive. In How to Be a Stoic, philosopher Massimo Pigliucci offers Stoicism, the ancient philosophy that inspired the great emperor Marcus Aurelius, as the best way to attain it. Stoicism is a pragmatic philosophy that teaches us to act depending on what is within our control and separate things worth getting upset about from those that are not.

Best-selling social historian Charles Murray has written a delightfully fussy - and entertaining - book on the hidden rules of the road in the workplace - and in life - from the standpoint of an admonishing, but encouraging, workplace grouch and taskmaster. Why the curmudgeon? The fact is that most older, more senior people in the workplace are closet curmudgeons. In today's politically correct world, they may hide their displeasure over your misuse of grammar or your overly familiar use of their first name without an express invitation. But don't be fooled by their pleasant demeanor....

Two and a half decades ago, Ascended Master Teachers Arten and Pursah appeared to Gary Renard and held a series of conversations with him that elaborated on the teachings of two spiritual classics, The Gospel of Thomas and A Course in Miracles. Gary immortalized what he learned in the books of his best-selling series. This fourth book, a companion to the original trilogy, explores six of the lifetimes in which the incarnations of Jesus and Buddha lived together, beginning in 700 BC when they were known as Saka and Hiroji.

Men are not the enemy, and masculinity, contrary to what much of popular culture would have you believe, is the solution to what plagues individuals, families, and society as a whole. In The Masculinity Manifesto, author and podcaster Ryan Michler focuses on how a man can wield his power and lead others well with influence, credibility, and authority. Ryan refuses to accept the gradual and intentional decay of masculinity, instead he chooses to tackle the questions others are afraid to address.

This is a very NECESSARY piece of Masonic Work...
We have been having some great discussions regarding the overall health of our Blue Lodges in our Master Craftsman Study Group and among the board of the Capaha Scottish Rite Club. We are seeing a growth in new Master Masons /dues-paying Members but little progress in the way of retaining attendance of those new Brothers within the Blue Lodges. We have to engage our young and/or newly-raised Master Masons. They need to feel challenged and feel welcomed into a learning environment.
I have been listening to a wonderfully simple, yet very thought-provoking book called “Measured Expectations: The Challenges of Today’s Freemasonry” by Bro. Michael R. Poll.
The opening chapter of the book is difficult to listen to because, quite honestly, the truth does hurt... it stings a lot, actually.
If one has fairly thick skin and is open-minded, I HIGHLY recommend this book. It seriously spoke to me on a VERY personal level. I myself am currently serving my Blue Lodge in my second chair... I am a Senior Warden. I am crash-course learning; some by studying and some by trial and (lots of) error... learning the lessons that will hopefully help me to someday be a Worthy & Well-Qualified, D&TP Worshipful Master of the Lodge I love and am truly privileged to serve.
There are some things in the works that will hopefully move to provide some of the needed engagement that I feel can and will be reached through offering a structured, challenging and rewarding Masonic Education program to our Brothers who are just starting in that NE corner and even those who have passed through the East.
Freemasonry is far from hanging up the collective towel... we are just waiting for that next spark that will again set our collective hearts ablaze with the passion we remember from the night we were Raised.
Please take a few minutes and listen to this excerpt taken from the Audible version. I’d love to hear your thoughts on this. While not easy to hear at times; I think this is one of the most NECESSARY Masonic Works out there during this critical time in our Masonic Existence. This book is outstanding. I am listening to it over and over to take notes.

Fantastic walk through Freemasonry
Listening to Mr. Poll’s insights into the history, purpose and meaning , its present condition, what it meant to those who have gone this way before, and what it can be to those of us in the Brotherhood today, was fascinating, insightful, and mind expanding. Having just completed my first pass I will now go back through, but this time I will be taking notes.
