Masonic ImprovementMasonic Musical Chairs and The Past Master ParadoxWe often see Masonic Lodges advancing officers each year like they're playing a game of musical chairs and often without much regard to the leadership capabilities of the brethren. Many lodges (and masons) seem to think that putting Past Masters in any office, especially serving as Worshipful Master again, is a sign of an unhealthy lodge. This creates somewhat of a paradox where we have two mindsets that seem to contradict each other. On one hand we want to keep advancing everyone through the chairs but on the other hand, we become distraught when we ha...2021-02-0704 min

Masonic ImprovementA Look At the Past: The Lost Art of Masonic RetentionIf your Masonic lodge is having issues with membership retention then it may be worth considering how many lodges approached membership in the past. Freemasonry in the USA has been losing members for a few decades now and many jurisdictions have tried various approaches to help alleviate the problem. Some approaches include one-day classes, open houses, reducing the proficiencies, low dues, and even advertising yet the problem still remains. The more transparent and mundane we try to make ourselves appear the less attractive we are actually making our fraternity. This is because it is t...2021-02-0608 min

Masonic ImprovementRites of Passage in Freemasonry - Freemasonry ExplainedDid you know that Freemasonry contains several rites of passage? In this episode, I'll discuss what rites of passage are and why they are important, particularly in regard to men and Freemasonry. I also break down the three phases of a rite of passage and explain the importance of each part and how they apply to our ritual.

Masonic ImprovementIs Freemasonry Still Relevant in 2021?Is Freemasonry still relevant in 2021? In a world where everything comes fast, easy, and cheap and quality has long been overshadowed by sheer quantity the answer is a resounding "yes". In fact, authentic Freemasonry is more relevant now than ever. Join me as I discuss how Freemasonry offers something that can't be found anywhere else. I also talk about how what makes us the most unique is what makes us the most relevant, and how important it is that we re-evaluate our common practices which are taking us in the wrong direction.

Masonic ImprovementGuarding The West Gate - A CompilationIs Freemasonry too easy to join? Freemasonry isn't for everybody. Our rituals, catechisms, monitors, and even our investigation processes explain the qualities we should look for in new members. Yet, we continue to lower our standards, rush the investigation process, and hope that we can eventually get enough dues paying members to fill the lodge and return to our Glory Days. But at what cost? --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/justin-jones396/support 2021-02-0328 min

Masonic ImprovementThe Deal With Dues In Masonic LodgesYour dues are too low. Freemasonry isn't a service club and our primary focus shouldn't be fundraising, however this is the model for the majority of US lodges. As men, we should be willing to invest in ourselves and cover our own costs for the things that are important to us. Fundraisers have become a crutch that we rely on too heavily to pay the bills and maintain our low dues. The bottom line is that dues should be set high enough to cover the operating cost of your lodge. This...2021-02-0209 min

Masonic ImprovementGenerational Differences In Freemasonry - A CompilationFreemasonry is in decline because of generational differences. I strongly believe that generally speaking, what many Grand Lodges (and lodges) assume Millennial masons want does not reflect what we actually expect and desire from Freemasonry. We live in a world of instant gratification, participation trophies, and cheap products. I believe that it's human nature to seek out things that are meaningful and impactful with substance and history like Freemasonry does. I think Millennials actually appreciate a respite from the fast-paced world and take great pride in being a part of something that they pu...2021-01-3140 min
