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.

When employers hire someone, they often reverse the order of what I call the “4 C’s of Hiring;” Character, Calling, Competence, and Chemistry. Many search for those people who have a resume and experience in the position looking to be filled. Once the list of competent people is narrowed, many select the one they like the best. A better ...
One of the most basic problems in business is assuring we have the right people in the right positions. Moses was “burned out” judging all the Israelite conflicts. His father-in-law, Jethro, gave him wise counsel in Exodus 18. “Teach them (God’s) decrees and instructions, and show them the way they are to live and how they are to behave. ...
When I first started in banking I was accepted into a management training program. Young college graduates were given exposure to all facets of the bank, giving us the opportunity to discover our best job fit for the future. Their concept was a good way to match people’s interests and passions with the area of the bank where they ...
With remote work so prevalent, some companies now use electronic monitoring to determine how much time employees spend working. One field study, discussed in Harvard Business Review, concludes that the use of electronic monitoring is backfiring. The researchers learned that when electronic monitoring was used, workers tended to put less effort into their work. They also determined that productivity ...
A friend of mine had history with a publicly traded company that had invested heavily in a DEI program. He believed their program was harming the business. He called a board member to ask a simple but profound question. “What problem were you trying to solve with this program?” The program has since been discontinued. Many businesses get caught ...
When it comes to work it seems there are often two extremes. Either work is just a paycheck, or work is something that can become an idol. Personally, I can lean towards letting work become an idol. I have to work at setting boundaries. For many of us work is a way to find self-worth, and that, unfortunately, can ...
When it’s back-to-school time many parents are looking for a little grace and a family-friendly workplace. It takes time and effort for involved parents to get kids settled into a new school year. One way for an employer to build loyalty with their employees is to allow parents flexibility when needed. Since the work that these parents/employees still needs ...
When I was a banker I worked with hundreds of small businesses, most of whom never had a budget for their business. They sometimes pulled together projections to obtain a loan, but they rarely used them for comparison purposes later. Although a budget is simply a tool to help you compare your original expectations to your actual results, it ...
As a college graduate, one adjustment I had to make was from being a student who managed my own time to suddenly being accountable to an employer. My new role required more discipline and sensitivity to my boss’ expectations. Soon, I learned that working for a business required that I produce at a high-level of satisfaction and timeliness. If ...
My friend, Brad, has led a men’s ministry for decades. While having coffee, Brad said to me, “If I picked up every man’s phone in this place, I’d likely find pornography on half of them.” Brad lamented how some men can view pornography in one moment and teach Sunday School the next. Men may think pornography is harmless, but ...
