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.

There have been seasons when I’ve been so busy serving God that I haven’t had time to listen to God. Like many leaders I can obsess about tasks or performance, thinking I’m doing what God desires.

Conventional business planning is usually focused on one thing: More! Specifically, more sales, more profits, and more wealth for the shareholders. When the motive is “More,” customers and employees frequently become tools to be used and abused rather than served. A better approach is to be focused on advancing the Kingdom of God.

In 2001, I owned a consulting practice that gradually morphed into writing, teaching, business counseling, and less consulting. God’s blessing on those activities led to the formation of a nonprofit called Integrity Resource Center. During that change I wanted to assure that we were following God’s vision rather than mine. I fasted, prayed and journaled. Out of that time came ...

Justin, a young entrepreneur, told me, “Because of a bad experience with hypocrites at a Christian high school, I’ve avoided church. But Jeff Hansen, one of Integrity Resource Center sponsors, began mentoring me through a dark time in my life.” “Then Jeff passed away.

Recently, one of our laptops in the office stopped working properly. This computer was used for bookkeeping and the registrations for an upcoming event, so a blank screen caused many important tasks to screech to an abrupt halt!
