Mormons and Freemasonry - WB Hank Griffin

While Freemasonry still maintains a dedicated following, membership numbers are significantly lower than their peak in the mid-20th century. Is it changing values, the allure of a digital world, or something darker? We'll delve into the world of Freemasonry, uncover its past, and explore why this once-powerful fraternity is facing an uncertain future. Bro. Matthew Brockbank returns to answer these questions as we assess the future of Freemasonry.Show Notes: Follow the Craftsmen Online Podcast on SpotifySubscribe to the Craftsmen Online Podcast on Apple PodcastsListen to "Millennials and Freemasonry with Bro.

Amity App - WBs Jeremy Barnes and Michael Radigan

Imagine finding a dusty box in your attic, full of old letters and faded family photos. Now, picture that attic is your Masonic Lodge, and those treasures are pieces of Masonic history. That's basically what happened to Bro. Lee Justo, Historian of Huguenot Lodge No. 46 White Plains, New York. But instead of just marveling at the history, he did something incredible – he turned it into a YouTube sensation called "Secret Masonic History."Show Notes:Visit Huguenot Lodge 46 online Watch The Masonic History Channel on YouTubeFollow the Craftsmen Online Podcast on Spotify Subscribe to the Craftsmen Online Podcast on Apple Podcasts Visit the Craftsmen Online website to learn more about our Reading Room, New York Masonic History section, and see our Lafayette Bicentennial Events Calendar!Get our latest announcements and important updates in your inbox with the Craftsmen Online Newsletter Email the host, WB Michael Arce!
