Sourdough Starter

There’s something so simple, fun, and even magical about sourdough starter. All it takes is flour, water, and a little bit of patience—and suddenly, you have this bubbly, living mixture that grows and rises right before your eyes. It doesn’t take fancy skills or special equipment. Anyone can learn, and along the way, you discover just how nourishing and good for your body this bread can be.

But here’s what I love most: sourdough is more than bread. It’s a picture of our walk with Jesus. Just as that humble mixture of flour and water comes alive and rises into something beautiful, Jesus takes our broken pieces, our emptiness, and our mess—and He lifts us up. He breathes His life into us. He reminds us that in Him, we are made new.

Every time I peek at my starter and see it bubbling with life, I’m reminded of the hope we have in Christ. He doesn’t leave us flat or forgotten. He raises us into something whole, nourishing, and good—not just for ourselves, but to share with others.

So as you stir, feed, and wait for your starter to grow, let it be a quiet reminder: you, too, are being fed, loved, and lifted by the One who makes all things rise.

“And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus.” —Ephesians 2:6
