Book Description
Book II in the Series: Tools for the 21st Century Mason A Personal Handbook to carry with you through the Officer Chairs in your Masonic Lodge. Finally, a breakthrough handbook has arrived for Line Officers of Masonic Lodges to track their personal progress, year-by-year. Filled with specific information on each job, checklists, and rosters, this handbook has been designed to be written in as a comprehensive record of your service in each chair, from Junior Steward to Worshipful Master, as well as the non-progressive line offices. Each chapter covers a different office and has a section for you to record your observations on-the-job, which may be passed on to others who succeed after you. It serves as both a record of your personal memoirs, as well as a powerful operational and management tool for any Line Officer. No Lodge Officer should be without it. No longer can Lodges "shoot from the hip" administratively and operationally. Officers must know what to do BEFORE they take office and not six months into the job. Get a copy for each of your Lodge's Line Officers today! It is the ideal gift for someone who is currently serving in or desires to succeed through the various Floor Offices of their Masonic Lodge. If you are currently an officer of your Lodge, this book will provide you with insight into the inner workings of the Lodge and give you a winning jump on ”the know” for what is ahead. For Lodges, it provides a turn-key approach to developing a winning Leadership Team. THANK YOU for your business! A portion of your purchase will go toward improving Freemasonry through Charity, Brotherhood and Service to others!

Book Description
Freemasonry is the largest, oldest, and most influential secret society in the world. The Brill Handbook of Freemasonry is a pioneering work that brings together, for the first time, leading scholars on Freemasonry. The first section covers historical perspectives, such as the origins and early history of Freemasonry. The second deals with the relationship between Freemasonry and specific religious traditions such as the Catholic Church, Judaism, and Islam. In the third section, organisational themes, such as the use of rituals, are explored, while the fourth section deals with issues related to society and politics - women, blacks, colonialism, nationalism, and war. The fifth and final section is devoted to Freemasonry and culture, including music, literature, modern art, architecture and material culture.

Book Description
As it is with many things in life, when we have achieved the end goal, the diploma, the last degree, there arises the question, "Now what?" For the young Master Mason who is looking to make his mark in the Fraternity, this book is intended to answer the question, "Now what?" Lodge Leadership starts Masons, young and old, on the quest of becoming a better leader. Detailed in the book is a five step program to help members prepare and execute the skills of an excellent leader. The five step program starts with the investigation. Brother Nelson explains some of the best methods used to execute a productive investigation. Then Nelson presents the importance of being a mentor and clarifies ways to do it. He challenges readers to learn the ritual with exactness and to study the code. Each of these four chapters ends with three challenges to the reader to help implement what they have read, thereby refining their skills as a leader The fifth step to Nelson's Masonic Reform is leadership. Nelson details preparations, growth and maturity of leadership and how the reader can best serve and grow as a leader of their Lodge. Again Nelson sets forth challenges to the reader to help prepare them for leadership within, as well as without, their own Lodge. Finally, Nelson concludes with sobering challenges and encourages the reader to question their motives and desires to lead. Speaking plainly, Nelson shows how we often allow for personal treason in our lives, and how narcissism has crept into the order of the Freemasons. Nelson has accomplished a raw guide to Masonic reform. Re-affirming the importance of learning and study in Freemasonry, Nelson makes the very important point that it is ultimately the responsibility of the individual Mason to transform the leadership of the fraternity and propel the Freemasons into the new era.

Issues outside the Lodge addressed where Masons need guidance such as correspondence, ties and other apparel and openness are also addressed. This book addresses the perennial need for Masons to have a straightforward and reliable guide to etiquette, written by a leading Mason.
