Are we doing enough, if anything, to cultivate leaders that will not only keep our lodges alive and inspired, but also spread out into our communities and make a positive impact? We teach the virtues and principles of Masonry, but is it enough in today’s fast moving and divided society to make our Fraternity relevant and effective? Builders must eventually become leaders.
If we had more Masons as leaders in our community and government, would our world be a better place?
Explore the Masonic Leadership issue with contributions by Jon Ruark, Robert Johnson, Chuck Dunning, Russ Charvonia (PGM), Angel Millar, Bryan Simmons, Timothy Hogan, Samuel Newland, Michael Laidlaw and Dago Rodriguez.
