WB Chad Kopenski — Rethinking Ritual
Update: 2025-12-22
Description
He might jokingly call himself a "Masonic has-been," but RW Chad Kopenski is one of the most forward-thinking Masonic educators today. A Past Master, including the Ohio Lodge of Research, and a founder of the Royal Scofield Society for the Grand Lodge of Ohio, Chad brings his professional lens as an educator to the Craft to ask a fundamental question: What is the purpose of our Ritual? In this episode, Bro. Kopenski unpacks his powerful program, "Rethinking Ritual." Using the vivid and relatable analogy of a traditional family Christmas dinner, he challenges us to look beyond mere memorization and see our ceremonies as a conscious, intentional act of identity-building and connection.
