The Psalmist Voice Presents: Apostle Dr.Tonya

 Apostle Tonya is the firstborn of the late Mr. Ronald and Mother Bertha Mae Vaughn. Both of her parents are with the Lord in their Heavenly Home.  It was her beloved mother’s unwavering faith, deep love and reverence for Jesus which captivated Tonya and ignited her desire to be close to the Lord at a very young age.  Her mother was a virtuous, holy and anointed woman of God.  Mother Vaughn, full of God’s wisdom would spend hours reading the Word, worshiping and communing with Jesus.  As she battled with infirmities in her body, she never complained -- she suffered with grace, amazing joy and the love of the Lord.  It was by watching her mother’s lifetime devotion to the Lord that paved the way for Tonya to fall in love and follow Jesus.  

Then they that feared the LORD spake often one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon His Name.  Malachi 3:16 

Tonya radiates with an unbridled love for our Heavenly Father.  When you first meet her, it is her heart for the Father that immediately draws you into her presence.  She will lovingly begin to share; it is the Lord that has kept her during major 

In 2004, she founded Leave the Wilderness, Inc., an organization dedicated to assisting abused women and their children.  During the eight years the organization was in operation; Tonya brought transparency and attention to a cause dear to her heart: children.  In November 2005, a longtime dream came true as she debuted, a sold-out play entitled, Leaving the Wilderness at the landmark Byrd Theatre in Richmond, 

Virginia.   

In the past few years, as Tonya has walked closer to the Lord, the revelation and assignments of her forthcoming books was given to her. T
