Jenny Waltman, a visionary leader and the driving force behind Grace Klein Construction and Grace Klein Community, shares her extraordinary story with us. In this episode, you'll discover how a simple prayer in 2006 led Jenny to build a construction company with a mission that transcends brick and mortar. Faced with the economic challenges of 2008, her unwavering faith and determination paved the way for Grace Klein Community's inception in 2010. What began as a humble food delivery service for 58 families has now expanded to nourish nearly 20,000 people in Birmingham, Alabama every week.
