Dallas Cowboys NFL news: Players profess their Christian faith

Jonathan Evans, the chaplain of NFL team the Dallas Cowboys, has posted a video on Facebook that shows the Christian baptism of three team members. The video was captured at The Star, which serves as the Cowboys' new headquarters and training center.

Two of the team's linebackers, Anthony Hitchens and Justin March-Lillard, as well as safety Kavon Frazier, can be seen taking the big step to dedicate their lives to Jesus Christ.

According to Evans, welcoming the teammates to the Christian family was a huge honor for him.

In the video, Evans says that baptism is only "an external expression about an internal reality," and that he hopes the players will now have a new life guided by the teachings of our Lord and Savior.

After his baptism, March-Lillard revealed his Christian experience so far in an interview with Cowboys Cast. He regarded the moment as "life-changing," saying that he has gained a new spiritual family.
