The Living Jewels explores the profound symbolism, rich history, and profound moral lessons contained in the officer jewels of Freemasonry. More than ornaments of silver or gold, these jewels are silent teachers, each chosen to embody duty, virtue, and service within the Craft.
Drawing upon Masonic history, classical philosophy, and biblical references, F. Brad Fowler, Past Master of Ivanhoe Lodge No. 446 and Christian Lodge No. 392- guides readers through the jewels of each office, from the Square of the Master to the Lyre of the Organist. With clarity and reverence, he shows how these symbols not only define the work of officers in the lodge but also illuminate the path of personal growth, leadership, and character.
Ideal for lodge education, officer training, or personal reflection, this book reminds every Mason that the true jewels are not those worn on a collar but those cultivated within the heart.
Whether you are progressing through the officer line, delivering a lodge talk, or simply seeking a deeper understanding of Masonic symbolism, The Living Jewels will inspire you to see beyond the emblems and embrace the timeless lessons they represent.
