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.

A fourth-century church manual, the Apostolic Constitutions, called Good Friday a “day of mourning, not a day of festive joy.” Historically, many have called Good Friday to be a day of sorrow and fasting.

In our busy work activities, we rarely take time for reflection or sorrow for our brokenness and the brokenness of the world. We rarely mourn and repent for why Jesus came to die on the cross.

In Matthew 9:15, Jesus said, “How can the guests of the bridegroom mourn while he is with them? The time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast.”

Today is a good time to consider fasting, sorrowful repentance and to petition God to forgive us for the wickedness we have brought into our workplaces.
