Integrity Moments

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.

True Thanksgiving

With the approach of Thanksgiving, our speaker challenged each man attending my men’s group to share a blessing God had given them. Some had relationships restored, others were thankful for supportive families, while some were literally given the gift of life. Each told an important story. For me, the minutes we spent in discussion resulted in a greater thankfulness to ...

Generosity God’s Way

Generosity can cause harm if not driven by the proper motivation. My friend, Stan, was so convicted by the biblical account of the rich young ruler, who Jesus directed to sell all that he had, that he determined to do likewise. Stan became consumed with giving away all his wealth. Unfortunately, he talked more about “getting to zero” than he ...

A Better Return

At a Christian business conference an entrepreneur asked the panel of leaders, “Isn’t it better for me to forgo tithing right now to grow the business faster? Then I’ll be able to give even more later.” It seemed that this entrepreneur believed he could get a better return on the company’s money than God can. In Malachi 3:10, God said, ...

A Charitable Coup

During a business counseling call, Dennis shared with me that he desired to sell his business to some key employees, and use a significant portion of the proceeds for ministry. When I heard Dennis’ generous heart I urged him not to sign any documents until after he met my friends at the National Christian Foundation. Due to NCF’s charitable tax ...

Friend of Encouragement

Brad had hit a “wall” in his business. Frustrated by his lack of progress, he reached out to Matt for some direction. After listening to Brad’s situation, it appeared Brad was doing all the right things, yet he was discouraged. Matt realized that Brad didn’t need a “Friend with Knowledge”, he needed a “Friend with Encouragement.” Matt knew what to ...

Friend of Knowledge

Trade magazines, business journals, and video blogs are just a few sources Matt uses to gain knowledge on latest business trends. These resources, however, should never take the place of the personal relationship Matt has with Kirk, his friend of Knowledge. Kirk is an experienced business leader who has built and sold several successful organizations. Matt often meets with Kirk ...

Friend of Truth

Jim is one of Matt’s best friends. He tells Matt the things he needs to hear, which is often times the things Matt does not want to hear. Jim offers an honest perspective of what Matt needs to change or come to grips with. Often times, Jim’s truthfulness is affirmation to what Matt’s heart is already telling him. Jim is ...

Friends

There are three types of friends in Matt’s circle who have helped him grow both spiritually and professionally: a Friend of Truth, a Friend of Knowledge, and a Friend of Encouragement. Each of these individuals has played a specific role, enabling Matt to live out his faith and career to its fullest. The bible reinforces the importance of friends who ...

Gross or Net

2018-03-14T08:42:52-05:00November 16th, 2015|Tags: |

An entrepreneurial friend asked me, “Should I be giving from my “gross revenue” or my “net profit?” There are many businesses that have high sales volume, but very thin profit margins, sometimes 10% or lower. If these types of businesses tithed off their sales instead of profits they would quickly go bankrupt. God desires us to give from a generous ...

Return on Investment

When Chris walked into Matt’s landscaping business looking for work, he didn’t seem to fit Matt’s typical profile. High school dropouts with long hair and tattoos haven’t usually joined Matt’s team. God intervened, turning Matt’s heart towards giving Chris an opportunity. Addiction and poor decisions on Chris’s part made the transition difficult, but Matt was determined to invest in Chris, ...
