Overview

A daily Masonic devotional for the man who wants to live the Craft, not just memorize it. From Candidate to Craftsman: 365 Days of Masonic Light is a daily companion for Freemasons at every stage of the journey. One entry per day. Each one short enough to read over morning coffee and honest enough to stay with you through the afternoon. This is not a Masonic encyclopedia. It is not a ritual commentary or a history of the fraternity. This is a book about what Freemasonry asks of a man on an ordinary Tuesday when the lodge room is forty miles away and the apron is in the drawer. The entries follow the calendar year, January through December. Each month carries a theme drawn from the progressive teachings of the three degrees: obligation, brotherly love, the working tools, truth, mortality, gratitude, and light. The writing is built around scenes, not lectures. A man sitting in a parking lot before lodge. A Senior Deacon who cannot remember the last time he opened his own monitor. A new Entered Apprentice trying to explain to his wife what happened to him that night. Written for the newly raised Master Mason who does not yet know what to do with what he has received. Written equally for the thirty-year member who has forgotten why he stayed. Both men need the same thing: not more information, but more honesty about what the Craft asks and what it gives back. 365 entries. Twelve months. One year of daily Masonic reflection. Read one entry. Carry it through your day. Begin. From Robert W. Linn, a Master Mason, Past Master, and veteran who spent twenty-two years in service before turning to the question every Mason eventually faces: what does this obligation actually require of me? The perfect Masonic gift for a newly raised Brother, a milestone birthday, or any man ready to take his Masonic education into his own hands.
