Join Rev. Mark Hawks of Crossroads Ministries for a powerful new episode of the Walking by Faith Podcast, airing Sunday at 11 AM.

Today’s message turns to Matthew 27:35 (KJV), where Scripture records the soldiers casting lots for Jesus’ garments as He hung on the cross.

With clarity, compassion, and a heart for the Gospel, Rev. Hawks invites listeners to reflect on the true cost of redemption and the grace extended to every believer through the cross.
