Integrity Moments is a 60 second workday devotional from CEO, Rick Boxx, 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.
Here’s what business leaders are saying about UBN’s Integrity Moments:
I just finished your 4-day devotional on Rebuilding Your Reputation and want to offer my sincere appreciation and gratitude for you writing it. I really needed it right now.
I love UBN’s Integrity Moments. I often share them with my team when it’s relevant to them, and I have invited others to subscribe. It’s a quick read, and it’s great how you pull out the biblical applications.
I read your Integrity Moments every day. Your design is really engaging for me. Three sentences, a verse, and a wrap up take-away. The last two Integrity Moments have been particularly meaningful and timely.

When I began my banking career, I spent time investigating bank frauds. One of the frauds I worked on was that of a bank president who determined his significant pay wasn’t enough. This president began producing false travel expense reports, claiming that he was driving to headquarters, four hours each way, multiple times a month. His spending habits, however, continued ...
Stephen Covey in his book, Speed of Trust, says, “The best time to plant a tree is twenty years ago. The second best time is today.” In business and in life, the fruit is the best part of planting seeds. Yet, fruit takes time to grow. In order for fruit to grow, it takes watering, tending, pruning and waiting. The ...
As the new Chief Lending Officer of a community bank, I was charged with controlling the lending activities of the former CEO of the bank.

According to Wikipedia, St. Patrick’s Day originally celebrated the priest who returned to Ireland in 432 AD to bring Christianity to his homeland. Ireland had been a polytheistic culture.

When I was 19, I was working construction to pay for college. One of my peers invited me to go somewhere with him after work. On our way, he stopped where we usually filled up the company truck and he filled up his car and charged the gas to the company account. When I asked about his action, he said, ...
Although it’s only one hour, the change to Daylight Savings Time in the spring often leaves me feeling deprived of sleep and rest. If this is true after losing one hour of rest, imagine the impact my body experiences when God’s design is ignored and I work seven days a week! When I worked tax seasons in public accounting, I ...
In his book, The Speed of Trust, Stephen Covey says, “The principle is simply this: We tend to get what we expect—both from ourselves and from others. When we expect more, we tend to get more; when we expect less, we tend to get less.” Expectations produce an undercurrent for a certain level of productivity. It’s an undercurrent that produces ...
When I graduated from college, I started working for a CPA firm just as tax season began. Working seven days a week for weeks at a time was exhausting and could surface short tempers and infighting. In the middle of March, the firm decided we needed an evening to relax. They hosted a fun evening of card games and refreshments. ...
When I was young, I found a sharp-looking Toyota Celica that had surprisingly low mileage for its years. After purchasing the car, I immediately began having trouble with the engine that didn’t make sense for such a low mileage car. When my mechanic grandfather inspected my car, he said, “Rick, you’ve been swindled. The odometer has been rolled back.” I ...
Recently, Kathy and I met a young leader via Zoom. His family business had furloughed hundreds of employees due to Covid. When asked how we might pray for him, he blurted out that he has really been struggling emotionally. This pandemic season has been long and hard for many.
