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.

The Perfect Pair

2026-08-04T08:24:09-05:00August 28th, 2026|Tags: , , |

My wife, Kathy, was paired with another woman to lead a vacation bible school. While Kathy loves having fun, it’s often unscripted.  The first time Kathy spoke with her new teammate, Kathy told me, “She is very structured and scripted. We may drive each other crazy.”  Personally, I think God chose the perfect pair. Some children learned from Kathy’s fun, free form style, but other kids needed the scripted structured approach.   1 Corinthians 12:18-19 teaches, “In fact God has placed the parts ...

Innovators Beware

2026-08-04T08:08:35-05:00August 27th, 2026|Tags: , , |

Many entrepreneurs focus on one business and struggle to excel, while others, like Elon Musk, can create multiple businesses in vastly different industries. Some business leaders have a higher level of creativity and innovation than most.   But for many of those innovators, they would have trouble admitting that without God they would have nothing.  Colossians 1:16 says, “For in (the Son of God) all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers ...

Courageous Stewardship

2026-08-04T07:33:01-05:00August 26th, 2026|Tags: , , |

When I owned a fledgling consulting practice, I met with a ministry leader named Ken. To my surprise, Ken changed the conversation by asking me when I was going to hire a salesperson.   When I explained my concerns about affording a new hire, Ken reminded me that being a good steward often requires us to take a step of faith.  After Ken’s prompting, I prayed and courageously hired Steve. At our first prospect meeting, Steve secured ...

A Silent Faith

2026-08-04T07:22:26-05:00August 25th, 2026|Tags: , , |

In a Christianpost.com article, Michael A. Youssef, pastor of Church of the Apostles, emphasized that a Lifeway study reveals that 53% of Protestant church goers admit that many who know them do not know that they are Christians. Pastor Youssef highlights that “a silent Christian is not a neutral Christian; a silent Christian is a weakened witness. Because truth that is never spoken will eventually become truth that is never seen.” If we go to work with ...

Wise Diversification

2026-08-04T07:13:29-05:00August 24th, 2026|Tags: , , |

As a banker, I was once asked to make a loan to a businessman who owned nothing except one stock worth $2 million, but he owed $1 million against that stock.  I was surprised by his lack of diversification. I declined his loan request.   Later, that stock plummeted and he was forced to sell with a deep loss.  Jesus began a parable by stating that a master entrusted his wealth to three servants. In Matthew ...

Leadership Lessons of Elisha: Whole Truth

2026-08-18T08:46:39-05:00August 21st, 2026|Tags: , , |

The stories of the Biblical prophet Elisha in the Old Testament book of 2 Kings offer relevant wisdom for our work today.  Seeking a cure for his leprosy, the army commander Naaman offered gold, silver, and clothing to compensate Elisha for healing him. Yet Elisha refuses to accept any payment.   Seeing an opportunity for himself, Elisha’s servant Gehazi follows after Naaman and makes up a story to get some of the wealth for himself. Upon his return, Elisha confronts Gehazi ...

Leadership Lessons of Elisha: God’s Army

2026-08-18T08:50:32-05:00August 20th, 2026|Tags: , , |

The book of 2 Kings offers Biblical wisdom for our work today. The king of Syria seeks to capture the prophet Elisha. One morning, Elisha’s servant sees that an army has surrounded the city. The servant fearfully asks Elisha what they are to do.   “‘Don’t be afraid,’ the prophet answered. ‘Those who are with us are more than those who are with them.’” (2 Kings 6:16)  Elisha prayed that the servant’s eyes would be open to see the hills filled with ...

Leadership Lessons of Elisha: Simple Solutions

2026-08-18T08:52:12-05:00August 19th, 2026|Tags: , , |

The Old Testament book of 2 Kings tells of the Biblical prophet Elisha, whose leadership lessons have relevant wisdom for today’s workplace.  Suffering from leprosy, the army commander Naaman asks Elisha for healing. Although Naaman is expecting some dramatic invocation of God’s presence, Elisha’s prescription is simpler: Naaman is to wash himself seven times in the Jordan River.   Naaman is incensed with such a simple solution. His servants try to reason with him. “…My father, if the ...

Work By Faith

Florence Chadwick’s 1952 effort to swim from Catalina Island to the California coast is a favorite motivational story.  The day was so foggy she could barely see the boats that accompanied her. Exhausted after swimming for more than 15 hours, unable to see her destination, she gave up.   She learned later that she was less than half a mile from the coast.   She told reporters, “All I could see was the fog… I ...

Why We Pray

2026-08-04T06:16:25-05:00August 17th, 2026|Tags: , , |

If you’re part of Unconventional Business Network, it’s possible you’ve received a prayer card signed by our staff. My wife, Kathy, has led this effort for years.   Someone recently asked Kathy why prayer is so important to her.   When Kathy had breast cancer three decades ago, dozens of people showed up at our house during a blizzard to pray. The next morning, the hospital filled with people praying for her surgery.   Kathy realized, through prayer, that God loved her, healed her, and now she desires to spread ...
