Having sold millions of albums and credited with bringing gospel to the mainstream the five Clark sisters (Christina Bell as "Twinkie," Kierra Sheard as "Karen," Sheléa Frazier as "Dorinda," Raven Goodwin as "Denise," Angela Birchett as "Jacky") overcame humble beginnings in Detroit, enduring abuse, loss, rejection, betrayal, and sibling rivalries to achieve international fame as icons of the Gospel music industry.
