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, Kathy and I went with friends on a Kansas City Gangster tour. We learned that Boss Tom Pendergast ruled Kansas City in the 1920s by providing favors for others, provided they voted for his political candidates. This enabled Pendergast to handpick politicians who ran his city, including Harry Truman. However, when Truman submitted a road contract for bids, according ...
Imagine if the government rounded up possible Christian business leaders and put them on trial for being Christians. During your trial the prosecutors speak to your employees, customers, and vendors. Would there be enough evidence to convict you? Many business leaders attend church, but many of their employees might be stunned to learn that their boss is a Christian. If ...
The holiday season is a time in which we need to watch carefully for signs of isolation or loneliness in our teammates. Loneliness is associated with higher risks of heart disease, stroke, anxiety, depression and dementia. Three out of four people report moderate to high levels of loneliness. Recently, an American Bible Society survey discovered that only 11% of people ...
Farming takes tremendous patience to see the fruits of your labor. Farmers work hard cultivating the ground, planting seeds, and praying for rain, month after month. Farmers usually see very little, if any, fruit for most of the year. Then harvest time finally comes, bringing joy and gratitude. Out of joy and gratitude, is when God wisely asks us to ...
Recently, I was a judge in an entrepreneurial pitch event for college students. My job was to listen to six startup business presentations, ask clarifying questions, then, provide feedback or recommendations. The thought and work of each of these young people was impressive. The event for me was a reminder, however, that the most critical factor in any new ...
After 17 years at my employer, it was clear to both of us that it was time for a change. I jokingly told people we were growing apart, with the employer strongly hinting that “it was time to see other employees.” But behind the joking was tremendous fear. After spending so many formative years at the company, I had no ...
Likely one of the first American business coaches was a Paxtuxet Indian named Squanto. You may remember the first Thanksgiving story from your childhood. In 1621, the Pilgrims were dying from hunger and disease. Squanto, an escaped slave that understood English, coached these struggling settlers on how to build a farming and fishing enterprise in this new country. Even though ...
When I was a banker, I used to get nervous when one of my business loan customers would receive glowing press and be featured in articles. When the accolades happened frequently, it was not uncommon to watch my customer’s pride and ego become almost unbearable. It usually wasn’t long afterwards that I would watch as their businesses would crumble, or ...
During a challenging week, Jason felt called to attend a mid-day service at a church near his work. He was surprised because the church was a different denomination than the one he regularly attended. Nevertheless, one noon he walked into the sanctuary, took a seat, and just let himself “be” in the midst of the worship. Although the service was ...
Alicia experienced “one of those weeks.” The project she was leading missed a key deadline. A coworker announced he was leaving. At home, a sick child and broken washing machine added to the challenges. The final straw was when another driver hit her car while she waited at a stoplight. The insurance company declared her car “totaled.” Isaiah 54:10 says, ...
