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.

My first professional job was as a daily newspaper reporter. I got along with all my coworkers except the publisher’s assistant. Reporting to the top executive, she had (what I thought was) a condescending attitude to the lowly reporters, and to me, in particular. On my last day, I sent flowers and a card to the newsroom, listing everyone – ...

Is work getting you down? Do job frustrations and pressure make workdays feel like daily battles? Although work is a blessing and opportunity to use our God-given talents, it can wear us out.

Over the years I’ve gotten to know many wealthy business leaders. I’ve wondered why some are generous, while others are not. One of the answers comes from a recent survey conducted by the American Bible Study. This study determined that 94% of people whom they call “scripture engaged” gave to charity a median amount of $2000 annually. This is in ...
In the 1970s, there was a popular book called The Peter Principle by Laurence Peter. The premise of the book was that successful people often receive promotions until they’re finally promoted to a level of incompetence. The most common application of this principle is in sales.

When Susan received an email from a client who was frustrated that no one had responded to his earlier note, she was surprised by the sender’s tone.

Instead, she took responsibility for a mistake that was not ...
Jeremiah 21 tells the story of Zedekiah, king of Judah. Frightened of the approaching Babylonian army, the king asks the prophet Jeremiah to intercede with God. Although he had disregarded God’s prior direction to submit to the Babylonians, Zedekiah wants God to repel the invaders. But Jeremiah is compelled to speak God’s truth.
