About the Founder

A devoted humanitarian and evangelist, Madlyn has spent more than 40 years serving in Corporate America within the field of Credit and Collections. She also faithfully served as Chief Financial Officer at her local church for more than 13 years. Through her knowledge, experience, and faith, she strives to help individuals and families gain financial understanding, overcome financial challenges, and move closer toward financial freedom.
In addition to her ministry work, Madlyn is an accomplished author who seeks to inspire change through words of wisdom, faith, encouragement, and hope. She writes journals, short stories, poems, and books designed to empower others spiritually, emotionally, and financially. Through her Window of the Heart series and other writings, she encourages readers to strengthen their faith and discover God as the ultimate source of peace, provision, and restoration.
As a survivor of physical and emotional abuse—and a childhood witness to domestic violence—Madlyn understands firsthand the pain and lasting effects of abuse. Through faith and perseverance, she overcame tremendous adversity and now serves as a beacon of hope for women and families seeking healing and restoration. Her vision for G.R.A.C.E. House was born from a desire to break cycles of abuse, restore dignity, and provide compassionate support for women and children in need.
Driven by a lifelong commitment to education, encouragement, and restoration, Madlyn desires to build stronger communities by empowering individuals through faith, knowledge, and service. Through G.R.A.C.E. Publishing, she also seeks to provide aspiring authors with opportunities to develop and share their voices in ways that positively impact others.

She also earned the Competent Communicator and Competent Leadership certifications from Toastmasters International and supports the Georgia Christian Business Network, (GCBN).

Beyond ministry and community service, Madlyn values spending quality time with family and friends and actively pursues personal growth and self-development. Her lifelong mission is to empower individuals, strengthen communities, and inspire others to walk in faith, healing, and purpose.
