If You Truly Want To Walk On Water, You Have To Get Out Of The Boat

July 11, 2015 by Fred Milliken 1 Comment

“If you run with wolves, you will learn how to howl. But, if you associate with eagles, you will learn how to soar to great heights.” I was watching a video by Dennis Prager on happiness recently when it suddenly came to me that this had much significance for my Freemasonry and what the Craft […]

Increasing Membership The Right Way

November 21, 2012 by Fred Milliken 10 Comments

Once again the cries of a “membership crisis” resound across the Masonic landscape. The question is will Freemasonry double down on what has failed its ability to add new members? Will it continue to try to market the Craft in order to bring in new members? Will it continue to corrupt Masonic charity by making […]
