Publisher's summary

Brother Gage takes a looks at the entered apprentice degree in Masonry. He explains that everything a Mason will encounter in the future is simply an elaboration of this degree, both within and without the fraternity. He talks at length on the concept of symbolism and how it relates to Freemasonry. He also walks us through the entered apprentice degree a bit and speaks of specific symbolism the candidate encounters within the first degree.

Liked it. Some useful information and a different way to look at the subject. Would have liked it to be longer.

Filling, but Flat

Very informational, though they could have used someone narrating with a little more inflection in their voice...a tad monotone for my taste. Enjoyed all the information, though.

Too Short

I can’t believe Audible charged me 1 credit for a less than 20 minute lecture.

Not worth the money and time

I paid for the title because seen that it was just 17min. After listening to it, I think I could get more details by using google or watching random YouTube videos on the topic. Not worth the money and time. The sound quality is not good as well.

FELL ASLEEP 3 TIMES TRYING TO LISTEN!!

This actually could be interesting from the actual information shared but the monotone reading of it makes it boring, hard to listen too and puts you to sleep. Save your money or credits for some better book on freemasonry.
