Listen to the latest 60 second episode of Integrity Moments with Rick Boxx
Integrity Moments is a 60 second workday devotional that provides business leaders with helpful insight into what the Bible says about our work and how we can fully integrate our faith into our vocational calling.

Recently, I learned several lessons as I spent three days as a juror. The first lesson is how differently people can view the same set of facts.

The defendant had run a red light, then crashed into the plaintiff’s car. The plaintiff’s car was “totaled,” and, she racked up $107,000 in emergency room and subsequent medical bills.

Her request for repayment seemed reasonable and credible to me. It turns out that I was an outlier. The jury only awarded her $17,600 and two jurors refused to pay anything.

In 1 Kings 3:9 Solomon asked, “So give Your servant an understanding heart to judge Your people to discern between good and evil.”

In business, we make many judgment calls. In those moments do your part by asking God for discernment.
