Description
From Man to Mason by Dan Hrinko
Freemasonry makes good men better. We are the only organization that provides self improvement through 400 year old rituals and symbols. However, handing the newly raised brother a booklet and saying "have a seat with the brethren" is not enough to make him an active and engaged member. This book, only138 pages, quickly and easily lays out solid, well researched, practical and easy to use processes that anyone in a lodge can apply today. From Man to Mason can enhance the mentor manuals many Grand Lodges provide. It can be used al carte or followed step by step.
What people are saying about From Man to Mason:
"Man to Mason is a master class on the transformational potential of masonic education. Written for lodge leaders everywhere, it is a well-documented argument showing lodges how to make informed and enlightened masons rather than members. This is a book for 21st Century Freemasonry."
Most Worshipful Douglas N. Kaylor, Past Grand Master Grand Lodge of Ohio
"This book is not a prescription of what you must do, but a description of what you can do; illustrating principles of Masonic Education using real world examples to enlighten and empower Brethren in creating an intentional, meaningful, connected, quality candidate experience.
Masonry is all about meaningful connections, and this book is a lens to identify and resource to craft opportunities for meaningful connections in your candidate counseling. There should be a dog-eared copy in every Masonic Educator’s apron case."
Chad Kopenski
Past Chairman of the Grand Lodge of Ohio Committee on Education and Information.
Past President of the Midwest Conference on Masonic Education.
Founding Regent of the Royal Scofield Society.
"As we stand at the crossroads of tradition and modernity, 'From Man to Mason: A Transformation through Education' by Daniel D. Hrinko emerges as a beacon of light for the future of Freemasonry. This seminal work reinvigorates our noble craft by intertwining the rich tapestry of Masonic rituals with the crucial need for an enriched educational framework. It is not merely a book, but a cornerstone upon which we must build if we are to keep the sacred flames of our fraternity burning bright in the hearts of new generations. Let us heed its call - within these pages lies the blueprint to not only sustain but also to flourish our beloved order in the modern era"
RWB William Carter III, Deputy Grand Master of Grand Lodge of Ohio
