Lord Rae:
Thanks for the discussion. Totally got me over the hurtle and I'm pushing along again. :)

Madd:
I had a similar issue.  My solution was to take the "need-to-know" approach, and slowly let the character in to see the pieces pertaining to him and his problem (or her and her problem, depending on which story I'm working on.)

Quantus:
I am a fan of developmental Milestones.  You structure the secret society in levels, and each level has a trial/test/moral that must be learned and overcome before the next level can be attempted.  It would provide Ranks, a reason to dole out information in several smaller pieces, and draws the reader in more because they are, in theory, working toward a realization along with your character, rather than just having information thrown at them.
