Meaningful Lodge Experience | A Conversation with Bro. Manny Lozada

Author: Juan Sepulveda July 15, 2019 Duration: 35:24
How does a Meaningful Lodge Experience look like? When you first set foot into a stated meeting as a Master Mason, was the experience everything you expected it to be? Do you think that your Lodge's meetings have room for improvement?

On this episode of The Winding Stairs, I sit down with Bro. Manny Lozada of Orange Blossom Lodge No. 80 in Sunny Kissimmee, Florida. We had a conversation about how we can make our Lodge meetings more memorable and meaningful. 

Listen as we share some small and easy to implement improvements that can have a big impact long term. 

We hope you find this episode edifying.

Curiosity about Freemasonry often leads to a tangle of myths, history, and symbolism. The Winding Stairs Freemasonry Podcast untangles that knot, offering a clear path for understanding. Hosted by Master Mason Juan Sepulveda, this series moves beyond the popular secrecy tropes to explore the fraternity's genuine role as a centuries-old system for personal development. Each episode feels like a thoughtful conversation, examining how Masonic principles and rituals have quietly influenced society and history while focusing on their core purpose: transforming a good individual into a better one. You'll hear discussions that delve into philosophical concepts, historical contexts, and the practical application of Masonic teachings in everyday life. This isn't just for members; it's crafted for anyone drawn to the study of self-improvement and the enduring questions about life's purpose.
