Get ready to head back to the ranch! A brand-new story of heritage and healing is galloping onto your screens this March. “Crossroad Springs” Episode 7 premieres Sunday, March 8 at 8/7c, bringing a star-studded cast and a heartwarming tale of “cowboy church” to the forefront.

The Heart of the Hamilton Ranch

The story follows the Hamilton family, a group of resilient siblings and elders struggling to keep their legacy alive. James (Jonathan Stoddard), a dedicated pastor from Chicago, and his sister Janet (Emily Alatalo), a high-stakes ER doctor, find themselves pulled away from their city lives and called back to the Hamilton Ranch.

Upon arrival, they face the harsh reality of rural life: financial hardships, staffing shortages, and the weight of caring for their aging father, Willis (Shaun Johnston), and Aunt Amy (Kate Drummond). Itโ€™s a grounded look at the sacrifices families make to protect the land that raised them.

A Generational Feud and New Beginnings

No ranch drama is complete without a bit of friction. The Hamiltons soon cross paths with Daniel Newman (Jesse Hutch), the son of the neighboring farm owner. Tensions run high as a long-standing generational feud between the two families bubbles to the surface. Can these rival neighbors find common ground, or will the ghosts of the past keep them apart?

Faith Finds a Way: The “Cowboy Church”

As James settles into the daily grind of ranching, he notices something missing among the thousands of acres of farmland: a place to worship.

Inspired by the “come-as-you-are” spirit of the West, James decides to bring the word of God directly to the people. From dusty barns and rodeo arenas to gatherings under the vast, starlit night skies, he establishes a cowboy church. Itโ€™s a beautiful reminder that faith doesn’t always need a cathedralโ€”sometimes, all you need is family and a quiet corner of the ranch.
