Grammy Award Nominee Jekalyn Carr To Release Debit Book 2/20, Plus New Album 2/23  Image

Grammy Award-nominee and Stellar Award-winning singer and motivational speaker, Jekalyn Carr, is already kicking off 2018 with a bang, by announcing two new exciting projects. She is releasing her first book, "You Will Win!: Inspirational Strategies to Help You Overcome," on February 20th and to coincide with the book, her forthcoming live album, One Nation Under God, will release on February 23rd with first single, "You Will Win" - already a chart-topping hit - sharing the name of her book.

"You Will Win!..." is packed with impactful and inspirational messages from Jekalyn Carr, to help readers conquer their storms, live in victory and maintain a winning attitude. As a young motivational speaker for over ten years, Jekalyn has traveled the country speaking to audiences. "You Will Win!" is a reminder that words have the power to create and speak happiness and joy into your life. Jekalyn provides 14 principles to follow and apply along the path to winning. She also offers 7 ways to win and 12 habits for a win. The book is now available for pre-order everywhere books are sold. "You Will Win" is being published through Trinity Broadcasting Networks (TBN) - the company's first book release.

One Nation Under God is Jekalyn's fourth album distributed on her own Lunjeal Music Group imprint and will release on February 23rd. The album is a call for all people to unite, removing the limitations of race, religion, denomination, organization, location, gender, or class. Carr addresses how we should see ourselves - as one united body of believers. Inspired by her book, the lead single of the same name "You Will Win," debuted at No. 1 on Billboard's Gospel Digital Song Sales chart in September 2017; reached No. 1 this week on Billboard's Gospel Airplay chart; and hit the Top 10 on the Hot Gospel Songs chart.

Last year was a busy year for the Arkansas native with the success of The Life Project and her song, "You're Bigger," which earned Jekalyn Carr a Grammy Award nomination, two Billboard nominations, five Stellar Gospel Award nominations and a GMA Dove Award nomination. She also made several notable televised performances and appearances on The Dove Awards, NFL Super Bowl Gospel Celebration, The Trumpet Awards, TBN, The Bobby Jones Gospel Show and more.

Jekalyn also made her acting debut with a featured role in Season 2 of OWN Network's hit original series, "Greenleaf" and appeared on the "Greenleaf" Season 2 soundtrack, which earned an NAACP Image Award.

This year, Jekalyn Carr will make her film debut in "I Never Heard My Father Speak," alongside actress Robin Givens and singer-songwriter Kandi Burruss.
