To celebrate 100 episodes, we break down one of the biggest insights we’ve learned so far: the foundation of Blue Lodge is built on authentic relationships, everything else sits on top. 

Lodges today are facing the same challenges seen across society: men are struggling, often silently. These struggles affect the emotional and relational health of Lodges. We say the word “brotherhood,” but men want deeper connection than many currently experience. Ritual and fellowship are strong, but authentic connection is often missing. 

In 2026, Grand Lodge and Masonic Charities will be partnering with the Face It Foundation in a meaningful pilot program that will meet modern needs while honoring tradition. This won’t replace Masonic practices or alter Lodge identity; it will add to it and amplify the core essence of Freemasonry. 

“I think that's the exciting opportunity you have, to take this built-in network of Brothers and go to another level to create deeper connections, deeper bonds, and unburden yourself of the things you’re carrying.” -Mark Meier and Bill Dehkes
