Journey to Daybreak is a spiritual guide for those who are experiencing a season of darkness on their path to a new day of light.

In this wonderful little book Martha Toney has explored the hidden shadows of everyday life, and found not only many pathways to the light, but hidden blessings to be treasured in the darkness. With poignant personal anecdotes and a rich banquet of Christian wisdom from the past she gives the reader a roadmap to daybreak and the encouragement to follow it.

Rev. Dr. Martha Toney

The Rev. Dr. Martha Toney is a native of Spartanburg, S.C. Martha’s early life was spent as a professional opera singer, both in New York City and eleven years in Hof Theatre, Hof, Germany. Dr. Toney holds a Doctor of Ministry in Theological and Biblical Studies from the Graduate Theological Foundation, as well as a Master of Ministry from Southern Wesleyan University and a Master of Music from the Manhattan School of Music. Martha is a board-Certified Chaplain, holding 6 units of Clinical Pastoral Education. She was also personally trained by John Maxwell as a certified public speaker. In 2014, Martha was ordained as Deacon by Bishop Greg Brewer in the Diocese of Central Florida. Much of her last ten years has been spent at the bed-side of Hospital and Hospice patients, and it is these defining experiences that qualifies Dr. Toney to write on personal need for “Light,” the everlasting Light of Christ. In this world today, everyone needs an anchor, and this book, “Journey to Living Light” is a great place to begin a personal journey towards the Light of the World, Jesus.
