We all have our own scars. Maybe they are in obvious places where people ask the story behind them. Or maybe they’re internal without anyone knowing about them. No matter what they look like or mean to you…you are more than your scars. On this episode of God Hears Her, plane crash survivor and America’s Got Talent finalist, Kechi Okwuchi, shares the story behind her scars with hosts Elisa Morgan and Eryn Eddy. About Our Guest: Kechi Okwuchi is a Nigerian American recording artist and motivational speaker. One of two survivors in a plane crash in 2005, Kechi is now a burn survivor advocate and a national patient ambassador for Shriners Children’s Hospital in Galveston, Texas. In 2017, she became a finalist on America’s Got Talent and has continued to put out her own original music since the show. She hopes to use her story and musical talents to ignite hope.
