Thank you for the splendid magazine AD2000. I look forward to it each month.

The article in the February issue in which Scott Hahn was interviewed on what Vatican II taught about Scripture was excellent. I took up Dei Verbum to reread and found it very inspiring.

It is good to have a magazine that is orthodox, modern and interesting.
