Amazing Greats

A Legendary Voice, A Raw Story — Bonnie Keen on Faith That Endures

Host Ric Hansen. Produced by Klem Daniels

In this powerful episode of Amazing Greats, singer-songwriter, author, and original First Call member Bonnie Keen joins us for a raw and hope-soaked conversation about her extraordinary journey. For those who may not know, First Call was one of the most iconic vocal groups in Contemporary Christian Music during the ’80s and ’90s — known for their tight harmonies, innovative arrangements, and a sound that helped define an era. Bonnie pulls back the curtain on the highs of that celebrated career alongside the deep valleys of divorce, single motherhood, identity loss, and a years-long battle with depression that left her questioning everything she thought she knew. With honesty, humor, and a faith forged in the fire, she shares how God met her in the darkest places and slowly rebuilt her life, her confidence, and her calling.

You’ll hear the untold stories behind her time with First Call, the life-changing moments that reshaped her spiritual walk, and the unexpected ways God used pain to strengthen her voice and her ministry. Whether you’ve followed Bonnie’s work for decades or are discovering her for the first time, this conversation will leave you inspired, encouraged, and deeply moved. It’s a reminder that God does some of His most amazing work in the rubble — and Bonnie Keen is living proof of that.
