What is in a name? It is the identity of the person. In the case of Jesus, it is the name that means "Savior" and no other name saves. This is why Christmas historically is a big deal. God Himself came into our world so that the world might be healed and so that people could have union with God. Dr. Zeiule's meditation is preceded by the Deacon's litany with its response of Kyrie Eleison ("Lord, Have Mercy!"), and followed by the celebration of Holy Communion in the Lutheran Rite.
