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.

Recently, a foundation Executive Director mentioned to me that he’s excited that more people are having best practice discussions and are touring creative, faithforward businesses. Tony Holt, our St. Louis City Director, led a tour of business leaders into Cambridge Engineering for that purpose last year. It was valuable for these leaders to learn Cambridge’s approaches for modeling a biblical ...

Doug is in his 70s, but most of the group were in their 40s. Doug shared, “I don’t like fishing. I only caught 5 fish all week, but I’ve mentored many of these men for ...
Which came first, the chicken or the egg? We have all heard this idiom. And in business, it could not be truer. Knowing what steps should come first and discerning priorities is cumbersome and can be overwhelming at times. We are bombarded with choices and opinions. Too many possibilities have the potential to distract from making progress in any one ...
Working with thousands of business leaders, I love how each person has their own unique way of expressing their faith. Some are very direct through their company mission statement or their marketing approaches. Other business leaders are more subtle, possibly by describing the values they believe in, leading you to ask why. Unfortunately, some are so stealth that you may ...
Self-imposed deadlines can sometimes undermine my relationships. When fiscal year-end draws near, I can get too focused on achieving the goals that I have set. Instead of focusing on what I want for our donors or customers, I can get too focused on what I want from them. Likewise, in the sales world, there are goals and deadlines that can ...
A retired CEO asked recently if I’m seeing more acceptance for faith in the workplace. I shared that most publicly traded companies prefer to avoid the subject of faith altogether, but small independent businesses are different. A good example is found in a press release I read recently. When discussing his company’s growth plans, Darris Stoll in South Carolina said, ...
A 2016 study by University of California researchers discovered that 29% of entrepreneurs have ADHD. Only 5% of the general population struggle with the diagnoses. Dr. Johan Wiklund researched ADHD’s impact on entrepreneurs. He discovered that ADHD comes with three basic traits; hyperactivity, inattentiveness, and impulsivity. He found that these traits can be harnessed into strengths for entrepreneurs. Being hyper-focused ...
A recent article from the Small Business Chronicles states, “cash scarcity is common for small businesses.” Due to capital expenditures, supply chain disruptions, competitive labor costs and more, cash flow in many cases can be lean. When things get tight, there may be a temptation to withhold paying what is due. Proverbs 11:24 says, “One gives freely, yet grows all ...
In the Midwest, Mid-August is a time for schools to start back-up. College kids are planning to head back to school, while kindergartners are excitedly preparing for their first day. This can be a hectic, exciting, anxious, and/or sad time for parents with school-age children. A family friendly workplace may want to be sensitive to the needs of their employees ...
