JFK and Jackie at a diner in Oregon, 1959. As Kennedy sat in the diner, he was a senator at the time and still relatively unknown in most parts of the country. He hadn't even officially announced that he was running for president.

However, during this photo, he was on an unofficial campaign trail, and most members of the Democratic Party knew he would run. In fact, back in Washington, a "Stop Kennedy" movement was already underway from his competitors.

Throughout 1959, Kennedy traveled the length and breadth of the land, with a full schedule of speeches and public appearances, combating critics and challengers attempting to derail his bid to win the Democratic nomination.

He traveled all over: the Midwest, California, attended a Cubs game, met Stan Musial (famous Cardinals baseball player), and visited a West Virginia coal factory. Interestingly, he faced smaller crowds out west, and in this photo, taken in Oregon, he was a virtual unknown.

"In Oregon," recalled photographer Jacques Lowe, who traveled with JFK for part of 1959, "Kennedy walked into a union hall to find eleven men waiting to hear him." Undeterred, according to Lowe, JFK didn't miss a step. "Without hesitation, he launched into his speech."

I am going to judge my circumstances by Jesus’ love, not Jesus’ love by my circumstances.

[Garrett Kell ن @pastorjgkell]

I heard of a family with two empty places at their dinner table tonight for loved ones they lost this year.

For those who grieve the empty seat, remember: "The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit" (Ps. 34:18).

Lord, be near today.

When you live with grief, you can't afford to waste any emotional energy on petty, picky, prejudiced, or pugnacious people. Forgive them & forget them and move on.

The early church was (1) multi-ethnic/against racism (2) committed to the poor (3) forgiving and reconciling (4) anti-abortion/pro-life (5) committed to sex only within marriage between a man and a woman. Then--The Five were seen as radical and out of step with the culture.
