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.

At times, I’ve risked my livelihood to start a new organization, but I've never risked my life like Christopher Columbus did when he went exploring. Even if Columbus’ premise of reaching the East Indies by sailing west had been correct, it was uncertain whether they would have adequate supplies, time, or weather. They took a big risk! In 2 Corinthians ...
As business leaders we strive for results: we have sales targets to hit, projects to complete, and budgets to meet. We sometimes forget the process--from strategy to results--is where personal development occurs. Success doesn’t happen haphazardly. It’s not a snap of the fingers or a twitch of the nose. It’s a process. Methodical. Focused. Painful at times. Every step offers ...
Recently, I was researching the ethics of “bluffing” in business. Albert Carr wrote an article in Harvard Business Review about this very subject that stunned me with the depth of Mr. Carr’s rationalization for poor behavior. He contended that “business is a game and that anything is fair in a game, if it doesn’t violate the law.” He believed that ...

One evening, maintenance changed the light. The next morning, I was amazed as to how well I could see my work. It not only gave me a better view; the changed light ...
