Bonnie Keen
Bonnie Keen is a founding member of the critically acclaimed recording trio First Call. Over a span of 20+ years she has been awarded three Dove Awards, five Grammy nominations, and an Emmy nomination for her work as a recording artist, author and speaker.

Penning several number one contemporary Christian songs with First Call, she has recently covered new ground as a solo artist writing for her three CDs: “Marked For Life,” “God Of Many Chances” and her latest 2007 release, “Evidence of Love.”

As a survivor of divorce, single parenthood, and clinical depression, Bonnie’s story has graced the covers of “Today’s Christian Woman” and “Virtue” magazine. Her first three books allowed her the chance to speak hope to others from her first hand experience of God’s mercy to messy situations. “Blessed Are the Desperate,” “God Loves Messy People,”and “A Ladder Out of Depression” openly reveal   Bonnie’s journey from despair to hope.

Her ongoing passion remains to say ‘do not give up’ to hopeless people of faith who may find themselves discouraged when life turns upside down.

As a multi-dimensional communicator, using interactive video, music and speaking, her testament of God’s faithfulness has taken her on various media tours including appearances on “The 700 Club,” “100 Huntley Street,” TBN, Moody Broadcasting, and “The James Robison Show.”

As a sought-after keynote speaker, Bonnie blends pieces from her books, and music with her message which makes her presentations unique.
Bonnie lives with her “miracle” Brent (a five-time Grammy award winning, horse loving, Renaissance husband) on their farm outside of Franklin, TN.
Her children, Courtney and Graham continue to follow their dreams both in Tennessee and New York.
