#50 Daily Bread with Courtney Moody

Today I’m joined by my friend Courtney Moody, wife, mama, homemaker, and the heart behind Acts of Sourdough. What began with curiosity (and a willingness to laugh at the flops) has grown into a family business that equips homemakers with simple tools, sourdough classes, and everyday encouragement. We talk about choosing home in a noisy world, finding peace in organization over perfection, tending real rhythms in the kitchen, and serving others with the work of our hands.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

• Courtney’s leap of faith from restaurant life to full-time homemaking—and how it reshaped their family’s days. • Letting go of perfection in busy seasons and choosing peace over pristine. • Embracing experimentation, vulnerability, and progress in sourdough (and all of homemaking) • The Story of Acts of Sourdough • Staying anchored in prayer when calling goes against the grain. • Family business & boundaries • Using food to bless neighbors, support special needs, and steady family rhythms.

Resources Mentioned:

Acts of Sourdough • (tools, classes, and encouragement) Scripture: • "They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts." Acts 2:46 • (the heart behind “Acts of Sourdough”)

Courtney reminds us that tending dough is a picture of tending home: ordinary, repeatable steps that, over time, feed the people we love and shape a culture of gratitude, service, and joy. And that even one small rhythm, a made bed, a pot of soup, or bread shared with a neighbor can steady the whole house.

Friends, if this episode blessed you, would you share it with a friend or leave a review? It helps other homemakers find encouragement here at the table.
