Worthy And Well Qualified - A Masonic Podcast
Fraternalism comes in many forms. Masons often love to enjoy the company of their brothers over a good cigar. Some, so much so, that they even made a club for it.

It's all about perspective. Often Grand Masters are looked at as if on a pedestal. Surprisingly enough - they're actually real people, and today we get to know a special one.

One of the biggest issues in Masonry is, and was, "how do we keep our brothers engaged?", and we have been doing it wrong for a long time. This week, Bryan and I talk about a 3rd way - so we can finally get this right.

We venture out for some pre-Masonic Con shenanigans at Bog Iron Brewing and talk beer, food, and calling on “Secret Handshake Friends”.
info_outlineThe bonds of brotherhood run deep.
We join Freemasonry for many reasons - one of which is brotherhood and fraternalism. What do those bonds really mean?
Blood and water...
They say blood is thicker than water, so one might be inclined to wonder how strong a "fraternal bond" between men in an organization like Freemasonry could really be. To an outsider it could seem silly to think that men coming together through Freemasonry would become so close, but to those on the inside, there's nothing silly about it at all.
On this episode, gain a glimpse from our perspective. Learn just how much of a family you really become in Freemasonry and, as a result, what family ties and lineage really means... and how hard loss can hit you.
