LeKisha Earles is a living testimony of grace, restoration, and unshakable faith. A five-time Excellence in Christian Music Award winner and 2021 IGAA Album of the Year recipient, LeKisha’s voice doesn’t just sing—it ministers. Her God-given talent is a beacon for those searching for deliverance, redemption, and hope. But behind the awards and accolades lies a story of raw resilience. LeKisha has walked through the fire, enduring unspeakable pain—rape, abuse, a stroke, and even homelessness. Yet, in the darkest of places, she discovered the profound truth: God's love transforms, His blood redeems.

Her debut single, *He's Available*, now heard across the nation, is more than a song; it's a lifeline. Through it, she calls others to rise above their struggles and trust that, like her, they are all “A Work In Progress.” LeKisha's heart beats for this message, woven deeply into her upcoming album and everything she does.

As an actress, she has graced screens and stages in roles that reflect her deep belief in restoration—starring in *When Love Fails*, *The Real Reason*, and *Somebody Else’s Husband*, as well as several Gospel plays. Her ability to embody these stories mirrors the redemption God has authored in her own life, and her passion for healing touches hearts wherever she goes—from the U.S. to the streets of Paris and London.

But LeKisha's calling doesn't end with her music or acting. She founded *We Help Creatives* to empower artists and creators to turn their passion into profit. She knows the struggles that dreamers face, and her heart beats to guide those who, like her, want to turn their creative gifts into a sustainable life’s work. Through mentorship, resources, and support, she walks alongside those seeking to bring their God-given talents to the world.

LeKisha Earles stands as a voice for the broken, the lost, and the searching. Her testimony is a reminder that no matter how deep the pain, God’s grace runs deeper. For more information, visit www.lekishaearles.com.
