Since the February 2008 issue went online today, the December 2007 issue is now available for free to all who visit the website. Looking back, my favorite article from that issue was Fr. Neuhaus’s ” True Devotion to Mary ,” in which he identified excesses of Marian devotion and laid out a path to a healthier love of the Mother of God, a love which in turn leads one to a greater love of her Son. The December 2007 issue covered a panoply of other topics too, from Abortion Politics to Ecumenism to Robert Frost . Now those who do not subscribe to the magazine can enjoy it in full.
