ICYMI: Crossroad Springs Encore Airing Today!




Just wanted to share a quick reminder: if you happened to miss the new episode of Crossroad Springs on Sunday night, Great American Family is airing an encore airing today, March 11th, at 5pm/4c.

Be sure to tell your family and friends to watch, too. This episode was such a warm welcome back to the small country town of Crossroad Springs, which tells the story of the Hamilton family ranch and the surrounding community. It's filled with such beautiful moments that center around faith and family!

In this episode, we see the town welcome the plans for Pastor James (Jonathan Stoddard) to open the Cowboy Church to the community at Eastertime, and the Hamiltons' rival, Daniel Newman (played by Jesse Jutch), spars with his uncle (Jefferson Brown) over the way to deal with his neighbors. While Daniel would prefer to be more civil and fair, his uncle prefers to be ruthless. It seems there could be more to the story than just water rights.

Tune in or record Crossroad Springs- today, Wednesday, March 11th at 5pm/4c. on Great American Family.


Blessings on your day!

🎄✨ Great American Family Christmas Movie News with a Hint of Mystery




Christmas Movie News for 2026! 🎄

Now, I usually try to wait until the networks officially announce their upcoming movies before sharing details. However, since this news has already been reported publicly elsewhere, I thought it would be fun to share what’s been discovered so far.

The Hamilton Spectator recently posted some additional details about the upcoming movie “A Christmas Card Mystery in Starlight Point,” which was filmed from January 27th through February 12th.

Production notes from another site indicate that this is a Great American Family film produced by Candour Pictures.

Interestingly, The Hamilton Spectator article did not reveal the main actors involved, but they did share two photos from the production.

From the images, it is fairly clear that the actor is Jesse Hutch. The actress, however, is only seen from behind. She appears to be rather tall, close to Jesse’s height, with beautiful, curly blonde hair.

Out of curiosity, I did a few online searches, and several names came up, including Kate Drummond and Brittany Bristow.

So... at this point, I’m not completely certain who the leading lady might be. Just from looking at the photos, though, I could imagine it being either of the two suggested or possibly Ashley Newbrough, Jill Wagner, or Rose Reid.

What do you think? Do you have a guess? I’d love to hear your thoughts! Please share in comments below.

Here’s the synopsis for “A Christmas Card Mystery in Starlight Point,” provided by Candour Pictures:

“A young romance author leaves New York City after her novel is panned, hoping to write a redemption novel from home in Alaska. Finding inspiration in her former lover, and the mysterious Christmas cards left at her keys, newfound success has her making the difficult choice between returning to New York for a career of fictional romance, and her real romance in Alaska.”


Stay tuned
