Scripture Cards for Childbirth + beyond

by Courtney Schultz

I have been anticipating the release of this product for MONTHS. Well, really, YEARS if you consider the fact that the collection came into existence almost nine years ago when I was preparing to have my first baby.

As a young mom approaching the due date of my first baby, I knew I wanted some scripture to take along with me that would give me strength, encouragement, and comfort during the extremely challenging experience of labor and delivery. I searched the Bible for verses that I felt would give me the help I needed from the Lord to get through delivery, scribbled the sacred words onto 3×5 index cards and tucked them into my hospital bag. When the day came to delivery our son, my husband sat by my bedside and slowly read the cards to me, one by one, until it was time for Navy to make his appearance. It was an absolutely holy experience, and I have never forgotten how sacred our time together reading these verses spent.

Fast forward a few years, and this same collection of verses saw me through the delivery of 3 more babies, a stroke diagnosis, and every imaginable mountaintop and valley in between. These verses, as it would turn out, were not just for childbirth, but were for life. Nearly a decade later, I’m so excited to share that this collection is beautifully curated and ready to share with the world. Watch the product trailer here!

The Pure Heart Scripture Cards are meant to bring encouragement and strength in any trials you face. In my case nine years ago, that was childbirth. Maybe for you, it is career related; a medical crisis; a season of waiting; a season of growth. Whatever it is that you’re journeying through, my hope is that these cards will create in you a pure heart and a steadfast spirit (Ps 51:10).

It is truly a dream brought to reality to be able to share this collection in such a beautiful way, and I owe a debt of gratitude to Maddie Laidig Designs for creating yet another gorgeously designed product and bringing my vision to life. A portion of the proceeds from each sale of Pure Heart Scripture Cards will go to the Women’s Care Center to help provide assistance, education, necessary supplies and health care to under-resourced expectant mothers. You can check out the full listing in the With Heart Shop.
