In the past I have used our "Integrity Moments" emails to update our friends and followers on the activities of Integrity Resource Center and on my family. This month those on our email distribution list will receive an update on IRC and I will use this blog to update those interested in the Boxx family.

Kathy and I will be celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary this June. Shortly after our anniversary date our kids will be at Camp Barnabas so Kathy and I are researching and praying about the possibility of an anniversary trip to either Aruba or Hawaii. Your suggestions for great beachfront ideas on a modest budget are appreciated. 

"Transitions" seems to be the theme for the Boxx family this year. Our oldest daughter, Megan, will be graduating from Missouri State University in May. In June, she will be plunging into KU Med School to obtain her graduate degree in Occupational Therapy. It will be nice to have her back home again.

Jeremy has joined the workforce. In January he began a paying job with Johnson County Developmental Supports putting together lab kits. They tell us he is meeting his quotas with 100% accuracy. They believe he will need something more challenging in the next 6-8 months. We are proud of him. We are trying to use this opportunity for him to better understand the value of making money. I've told him that the faster he works the more Chick-fil-a sandwiches he can afford. It seems to be the best way for him to understand money. :)

Bekah continues to be homeschooled to allow flexibility for her grueling dance schedule. She dances 6 days a week and recently thrilled us with her dance performance in "The Underground" a moving story about the Underground Railroad. She was blessed to actually perform on stage at the new Kaufman Performing Arts Center here in Kansas City, one of the premier facilities in the world.

Kathy and I are working together on advancing Integrity Resource Center to the next level. It's been fun having Kathy sharing the load with me and using her gifts to move things forward. My spare time is invested with the family, reading, working out, and serving on some committees and boards.

Thanks for caring! May God bless your day!

In our Back to the Basics theme this year there's no better place to start than the simple, yet difficult, concept that God owns it all. Many of us mouth the words and know in our head that this statement is true, but we have a difficult time moving the concept into our heart and letting it flow through our actions. At a Business by the Book seminar I was teaching years ago in Michigan I met a doctor who claimed to have attended the very first Business by the Book seminar taught by Larry Burkett...

For 11 years in a row, Little League Baseball was the love of my life. Each summer most of my time was invested in practices and games. What we lived for was the game, but most of our time was invested in practice.

Chuck recently took the FIRE in the Workplace Course and wrote with this feedback: “I highly recommend taking the Fire in the Workplace Course, regardless of how long you’ve been a believer. If I had taken it sooner I would have realized the challenges that I face as a business owner, with both day-to-day and long term business strategies and decisions, were not at all unique to me and that biblical direction for most of them is crystal clear! The personal experiences, biblical references and co...

Every week I counsel business leaders facing crisis.For 10 years IRC has provided free phone consultations and consulting services for those seeking biblical wisdom for financial or ethical challenges. This week I received an email from MR: "Thank you so much for your time today to discuss my business struggles and to consider options from a Godly perspective. I consider our conversation a "gift" from God in this journey to discover God's plan for my business.
