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.

In this series, we’re discussing the phases Joshua navigated to address sin in his camp. The first phase was a proactive warning to employees. Even after the warning, someone will sin and there will be consequences, which becomes phase two. Years ago, I served on a ministry board. This ministry was highly unproductive, and the board could sense something was ...
As an employer, your workplace can be negatively impacted by the sins of your employees. Joshua worked through such a situation when Achan sinned. The phases that Joshua went through are instructive for us who may have to address similar concerns. The first phase is the warning. God gave Joshua specific instructions to share with Israel and what the consequences ...
As an employer, the story of Achan’s sin in the book of Joshua has troubled me. Joshua didn’t know that one of his soldiers had violated God’s command, yet Joshua suffered the loss of thirty-six men in battle because of Achan. All Israel suffered for one man’s sin. But God didn’t punish Israel, He withdrew His favor. Joshua 7:12 says, ...
Recently, I spoke with a woman who moved across the world to help one talented artist build his business. Her skills and work helped him become famous and produced millions in revenue. His fame eventually led to arrogance. He became verbally abusive and disrespectful to this woman, even in public. Her complaints to him about his abusive behavior have fallen ...
If you’ve been in a coffee shop recently, you’ve likely been prompted to choose a tip amount even before receiving any coffee. It can become easy to tip out of guilt when the interested party stands over you. Guilt can be a form of bondage, causing a person to do something begrudgingly, rather than out of a grateful spirit. God ...
According to time.com, tipping started after the Civil War. After the abolition of slavery, many former slaves went to work for restaurants and railroads. These institutions found a way to exploit former slaves by hiring them for no pay, but with the promise that their customers would tip them if they worked hard. Over time, the federal government encouraged this ...
In 1958, Patricia Haroski was working as a secretary for her father’s State Farm agency. She wanted to honor her father on his birthday, October 16th. Furthermore, she decided to honor all bosses as well. According to Wikipedia, she registered a holiday with the US Chamber of Commerce called Boss’s Day. The holiday hasn’t been widely accepted, however, partly due ...
My friend Jay is a visionary who sees opportunities where others see waste. Being a creative entrepreneur, Jay realized that a lot of businesses, especially retail-oriented ones throw out discontinued or dated inventory that still has value if placed in the right hands. That birthed Agape Inventory Donation. Jay has partnered with many businesses who have inventory that would have ...
Last year, I made a $10 mistake on my personal tax return that resulted in the IRS demanding $175 in penalties. Although it’s cheaper and probably smarter to send them a check, I just couldn’t let it go. Especially since according to the tax code, I don’t owe any penalties. When I experience an injustice, I tend to fight until ...
Years ago, I had a bank customer named Floyd. Floyd never spoke poorly about anyone else. One of Floyd’s employees stole Floyd’s trade secrets and started a competing business, even after Floyd had helped obtain this man’s release from prison. Despite the wrongs this former employee committed, I was surprised when Floyd’s only comment was, “Well, he must be pretty ...
