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.

Henry Blackaby speaks regularly about developing “Spiritual StatesPeople.” In his book, “God in the Marketplace” he writes, “Christian business leaders must refuse to be self-centered, politicizing profiteers. Instead, they must allow God to elevate their lives and their leadership to that of statespersons.” Our business world desperately needs spiritual statespeople. Psalm 1:1-3 describes such a person when it says, “Blessed ...
One of the things I enjoy most about teaching is when God shows up, in response to my prayers. Recently, I was delivering a talk when I sensed God urging me to scrap one of my stories and substitute another. I marveled as I watched closely the eyes of the men listening. That story resonated with them. Several men later ...

Almost anyone in business will attest that time management is a critical factor between success and failure. It’s so easy in our information overloaded world to become distracted. Putting out fires and addressing problems that are insignificant, can wipe out our day, while the real work goes undone. Proverbs 12:11 teaches, “He who tills his land will have plenty of ...
Bill and I hadn’t seen each other for a couple of years, yet it didn’t take long until we were sharing openly about our challenges in life. As I described one of my concerns, Bill smiled and said, “I had a phone call this morning I think may have been meant for you just as much as it was for ...
Have you ever changed jobs, suddenly immersed into a new culture? Did you infect it with your values, or did they infect you? The Prophet Daniel, as a teenager, was captured and injected into Babylon. King Nebuchadnezzar wanted Daniel and his friends indoctrinated into the Babylonian culture, so they were placed in an ancient management training program. The king’s plan ...
Over the years I’ve heard people say, “I don’t listen to Christian music, because it all sounds the same, or, I don’t like Christian movies because of their poor quality.” When Christian’s attempt to mimic secular approaches, the result often ends up being cheap imitations. When God’s in the middle of our projects, however, they will likely be unconventional. God ...
Years ago, in my consulting practice, I worked with companies from a variety of industries. On occasion some would contest my recommendations on improving their profitability, claiming I didn’t understand their industry. One approach I found effective in that case was using their own experiences against them. By reviewing multiple years of their company finances, I usually could find examples ...
A study reported in the Journal for the Scientific Study of Religion found four important ways in which those interviewed feel “called to work:” As an opportunity to use gifts and opportunities provided by God; As a chance to share or model one’s faith; Through producing goods or services that benefit society, and As a means to a higher calling ...
Dr. Richard Blackaby shared with our Des Moines members a time when his father, Henry, was speaking to a group of Fortune 500 CEOs. Henry challenged each of them to carve out what he called unhurried time with God. One CEO interjected, “Henry, that’s not likely, you have no idea how busy we are.” Henry reportedly said, “Well, you have ...
