Masonic Education has regrettably been reduced to teaching protocol, traditions, and catechism while ignoring the esoteric essence of the ritual. Esoteric, from the Latin word esotero originally esoterikos in Greek, simply means secret within or hidden within. Freemasonry's essence is esoteric and is universally defined as a peculiar system of morality, veiled in allegory, and illustrated by symbols designed to help a person improve. The primary purpose of Masonic Education should therefore be to assist initiates in delving deeper into the allegories and symbols at the core of Freemasonry's rituals. In doing so, they are encouraged to each draw their own designs to become a "better person", i.e., a free builder. You can therefore imagine my joy when I learned about the Middle Chamber Program that the Grand Lodge of North Carolina institutionalized in 2017 and overseen by Grand Master Shaun Bradshaw. Having a structured and rigorous program of Masonic Education that points to practical applications of Freemasonry's esoteric teachings is of utmost importance. Without it, Freemasonry's potential may become dormant and its promise unfulfilled. With the aid of Providence in 1776, the Founding Fathers of the United States launched an incredible experiment by placing the core of governance with the people, not the government. Freemasonry's legacy in connection to this Great Experiment has been its capability and readiness to graduate citizens of this republic who are committed to and equipped for self-governance, community building, democratic institutions, and the spread of enlightened freedom. Will Freemasonry rise to the challenge now as it did in the past? Given current conditions in the United States, we will need the concerted efforts of many free, enlightened, and engaged citizens who are committed to build more beautiful, stronger, and wiser selves and communities. I am confident the Middle Chamber Program will be a powerful tool in the noble effort to arouse the spirit and mind, to awaken the creative energies of large numbers of initiates by connecting them to the Freemasonry's hidden mysteries.

Her journey reveals a dark family secret and unleashes a chain reaction that transforms their lives forever. Their search to uncover the truth takes them through the awe-inspiring natural wonders and incredible anthropology of Per . Letters From Lima engages with the spirituality and mysticism of ancient Inkan culture and demonstrates how the harsh realities of life weave into a tapestry of transformation. "I would wholeheartedly recommend this book to friends and family. There is something in it for everyone-romance, mystery, death, traveling, and immersion in new and exciting situations and places." -Maya S. "I love the sense of humor both Collin and Carolyn have. Several of their conversations had me giggling from the witty banter." -Haley H. "I would absolutely recommend this book. I thought it was a joy to read; it was incredibly emotionally poignant and moving, and it was full of lifelike characters who came alive at every turn. I couldn't tear myself away from it. Letters From Lima has a strong sense of place, and it's rooted in Inkan and Peruvian culture in a way that makes it unlike other literature of its type. I also think it could appeal to a wide range of audiences. While it is in some ways a romance, it's also a story of discovery, loss, grief, and love. It's not women's fiction; it's a standout piece of literary fiction that deserves a spotlight. I would recommend it to anyone and everyone. I loved it " -Quinn A. Shaun Randall's authorial voice in Letters From Lima is reminiscent of Marisha Pessl and her best-selling thriller Night Film. He shares an intricate grammatical kinship with Sue Grafton. In this work of literary fiction, Shaun's expressive complexity and tonal quality harken to the award-winning Jodi Picoult and her #1 New York Times best-selling novel House Rules.

Richard Miller is the second-in-command of the submarine D2 and aspires to his own command, but his captain, Lieutenant Johnson, has previously withheld his recommendation on the grounds that Richard is too ill at ease with his men and too fond of his Bible. Just as Johnson changes his opinion, the submarine is involved in a tragic accident and sinks, leaving Johnson dead and the survivors trapped on the seabed with a diminishing air supply. It's a race against time for Richard to save his men.Meanwhile, Richard's cousin, Elizabeth Miller, faces her own troubles. She is an activist in the Women's Social and Political Union, standing alongside the Pankhursts to gain the vote for women, for which her activities bring imprisonment. But when her father dies, she inherits the family shipyard and, with war brewing, her new struggle is to build ships and submarines for the war effort. Whilst she continues the battle for women's equality in the face of male prejudice, Richard goes off to war, firstly in the North Sea and then in the Dardanelles. Soon he and his men must suffer twenty-six hours of foul air, survive the mine fields, Turkish artillery forts and treacherous waters of the Dardanelles Strait - and only then can they start their patrol.Skilfully melding his passion for history and his own experiences in submarines, Shaun Lewis has penned a gripping tale, rich in historical and authentic detail, on the hazards of life in early submarines and reawakened the largely forgotten tale of the Royal Navy's outstandingly successful submarine campaign in the Sea of Marmara. The first in his For Those in Peril series on the Royal Navy in WW1, Shaun has won international acclaim for a highly atmospheric, page-turning and fascinating thriller.In a career lasting twenty years, Shaun served in surface ships and submarines, as well as in appointments in intelligence and as a Chinese interpreter.

Britain's intelligence services must adapt to the growing threat of war with Germany As tensions between Edwardian Britain and Germany rise, rumours abound of German spies in Britain disguised as waiters and Captain William Miller VC is instrumental in forming the new Secret Service. Unable to follow his heart and join the Royal Navy, his son, Peter Miller, a gifted linguist, is persuaded to penetrate Germany's own intelligence service. But when Peter's cover is blown, it has terrifying consequences. Accused by his father of shameful cowardice, Peter must find the courage to win back the respect of the man he most admires. Volunteering for a clandestine mission to prevent the Germans laying their hands on Persian oil destined for the Royal Navy's new Dreadnoughts, it falls to him to uncover and foil a far more devilish plot - one that threatens to explode the British Empire. Roving from the green hills of Lancashire to the Lut desert of Persia, this second engaging thriller from Shaun Lewis weaves together the early history of Britain's modern-day intelligence services, Britain's acquisition of Persian oil fields and the true story of a German plot to prevent the British Empire's vast army in India from joining the Great War. Above all, it is a page-turning account of one man's journey to redemption. It will appeal to admirers of John Buchan's Greenmantle and AEW Mason's Four Feathers.
