If you or someone you know is a Christian and has their own business, they should definitely consider getting business cards. It’s an easy and affordable way to get more people to be aware of the business. For example, for my own website Christianlitreview.com, I purchased about 1,000 business cards from VistaPrint, and it only cost me around $20. Once you get some business cards, you can hand them out to friends and family, encouraging them to do the same. Whenever you have a customer, encourage them to take one, too. This will allow easy access to your contact information (name, email, phone number, etc.), which helps customers choose you for your service again and again. For a Christian business card, however, it’s also great to have a Bible verse on it to let people know that it is a Christian business run by a Christian man or woman. So, here are the top 7 Bible verses for a Christian business card.
“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” John 3:16
This verse is arguably the most known Bible verse of all time. As such, it easily identifies you and your business as being distinctly Christian. People will know where it is from, so you have to make sure that you are, in fact, running your business in such a way that brings glory to Christ.
“He who walks with integrity walks securely, But he who perverts his ways will become known.” Proverbs 10:9
As a Christian business owner, your goal should be to bring honor and glory to Jesus. One of the ways this is done is through integrity, not ripping people off or trying to cut corners.
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ,for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.” Romans 1:16
This verse will proclaim that you are not ashamed to speak of the Gospel, even within your business. Some people may not like it, but you are standing firm and letting everyone know what is the most important thing in your life—Jesus!
“These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” John 16:33
This is an excellent, uplifting verse to include on your Christian business card. It can certainly minister to anyone who picks up your card and reads the verse. How great is it to know that Jesus has already overcome everything for us?
“Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.” Isaiah 41:10
Like the last verse (#4), this one is incredibly uplifting. It will remind you that Jesus is always with you, while encouraging customers in the same thing.
“I have set the Lord always before me; Because He is at my right hand I shall not be moved.” Psalm 16:8
It’s easy to fall into a strict businesslike mentality; always concerned about a profit. However, the most important thing to you should be your relationship with Jesus Christ. Make this verse your goal, that you will always put Jesus in his rightful place—FIRST!
“Dishonest scales are an abomination to the Lord, But a just weight is His delight.” Proverbs 11:1
This is a very practical verse, and hopefully one that you implement within your own business, whatever it may be. In biblical times, people would weight their gold, silver, and precious metals to determine the price of a specific object or transaction. Many thrifty business owners, however, would manipulate the scales ahead of time to work in their favor. Essentially, they were ripping people off! Be sure that you always have fair prices and never try to scam people into buying unnecessary items, provide false information, or have fine print that is deliberately put in to a contract so that you can come out ahead. Just be fair and just!
