The Finish Line Podcast
Tim Barker, Founder of ROI Ministry, on Embracing Trials in the Generous Life (Ep. 153)

The Finish Line Podcast

Play Episode Listen Later Aug 25, 2025 58:56


Tim Barker is the founder of ROI Ministry and author of BOOM: What To Do When Life Blows Up Around You. His journey into generosity began after rising from humble beginnings to great success—only to lose everything during a season of deep trial. In the middle of that valley, God answered a “dangerous” prayer Tim had prayed years earlier: that the Lord would do whatever it took to multiply his family's kingdom impact. Out of that refining season came ROI Ministry, an organization that has since helped direct millions of dollars to high-impact ministries around the world. In time, God restored what Tim had lost and entrusted him with a voice of influence in the global generosity movement.     Through ROI Ministry, Tim and his team identify the Top 10 ministries producing the greatest measurable kingdom impact per dollar, helping givers steward their resources with confidence and purpose. In his book, BOOM, Tim shares his own story as a living testimony that God can bring blessings out of brokenness and truly work all things together for His glory and our good.    Tim was one of the very first guests on The Finish Line Podcast nearly four years ago, and much has changed since then—for ROI Ministry, for Tim, and for us here at Finish Line. In this conversation, Tim digs deeper into the heart of high-impact giving and reflects on what it looks like to trust God through both abundance and loss, offering wisdom for all who long to walk faithfully in the life of generosity.   Major Topics Include: Making a difference from where you are now The need to be honest with God in tough times Moving from failure to fruitfulness Blessing others by letting them help you Hearing the Spirit's leading in the midst of trials Seeking God in times of silence Giving from your mind as well as your heart Embracing both Spirit-led giving and cost-effective generosity A call to invest more in the local church  What to look for in a high-impact organization  Thinking through measurable Kingdom impact per dollar QUOTES TO REMEMBER “God, what do you want me to do?” “My story is really about not giving up, because you don't know what God is doing through times of refining and where He's going to take you.” “It's ok to want to give up as long as you've decided in advance that you're not going to.” “Be honest with God.” “Ninety-seven percent of all Christian giving is going to nations that have already been evangelized, and less than one-third of one percent is actually making it to the billion lost, poorest people in the world who are 3,000 times more receptive to the gospel.” “I believe in testing God with the tithe.” “You will find joy, hope, and purpose in helping others in ways that make the greatest impact.” “If you have an opportunity to impact thousands of people rather than just a few, then impact the thousands.” “Eternity is going to be a long, long time, and the more people we impact here, the more we'll meet over there. And not that we get the credit—God gets the glory. He just gives us the opportunity to be in the game.” “When you've been faithful, you know that you're doing what God's called you to do, and you're doing it for the right reason, eventually you will see a harvest.” “As stewards of God's wealth, are we encouraging others to do the same thing?” LINKS FROM THE SHOW See our first interview with Tim Barker here BOOM: What To Do When Life Blows Up Around You by Tim Barker EQUIP ROI Ministry National Christian Foundation (see our interview with President Emeritus, David Wills) Ronald Blue and Co.

In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.   Luke 21:1-4 | The Widow's Offering   Jesus looked up and saw the rich putting their gifts into the offering box,  and he saw a poor widow put in two small copper coins. And he said, “Truly, I tell you, this poor widow has put in more than all of them. For they all contributed out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty put in all she had to live on.”   Matthew 22:37 | Love God with All You Are   And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.   ​​1 Timothy 5:8 | Care for Your Family   But if anyone does not provide for his relatives, and especially for members of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.   Malachi 3:10 | Put Me to the Test   Bring the full tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. And thereby put me to the test, says the Lord of hosts, if I will not open the windows of heaven for you and pour down for you a blessing until there is no more need.   Matthew 25: 14-30 | The Parable of the Talents WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!

Founder of Rustic Cuff and author of The Kindness Effect: Experience the Power of Irrational Giving, Jill Donovan graduated from Oral Roberts University and went on to earn her law degree from the University of Tulsa.  She was a practicing attorney and adjunct law professor at TU when her passion for cuff bracelets, and her need to refill her ‘gift closet' led her to begin Rustic Cuff. Jill's heart for people and community has spilled over into her amazing company and Rustic Cuff has been able to give hundreds of thousands of dollars to communities and charitable causes over the years. Jill is a sought-after motivational speaker who encourages people to pursue their passions, fulfill their God-given purpose, and always pay it forward! On the Wow Factor today Jill describes her passion for kindness and generosity and the ways in which she has put that into practice from the age of 10 until today. She shares why she didn't initially want to pursue leadership opportunities or become an entrepreneur and how God gently led her in the right direction to best use her talents. Jill also shares why it's so important in her life to start her day by checking in with God in quiet and peace and asking for direction and instruction for that day. "When God speaks and you don't listen, he'll speak again and keep tapping.”  - Jill Donovan “I realized when you give people the opportunity to give when they might not have otherwise done so it opens up a whole new world for them.” - Jill Donovan “The more you immediately start saying yes to when your ‘knower' knows - it becomes habitual.” - Jill Donovan This Week on The Wow Factor: Jill's joyous upbringing and her dreams for the future as a child What Jill did to explore what God was calling her to do in life Why she took a sabbatical from her career as a divorce attorney to find something that fulfilled her spiritually How Jill got onto the Oprah Winfrey Show seeking her true purpose with a fun family story and the moment she nearly cried on stage The idea that God dropped on her that reignited her creative passions The beautiful story that prompted Jill to ramp up her bracelet making and commit to the giving lifestyle Why Jill decided to write The Kindness Effect despite never wanting to be an author, and the moment that finally made her put pen to paper Why Jill leads in the unique way she does and how a supportive generous team build an effective leadership environment Jill Donovan's Words of Wisdom: Just because you can doesn't mean you should -  there's a lot you can do when you're leading a company and it's growing, and you have all kinds of people.

Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession- to the praise of his glory.”   Ephesians 1:15–23 “For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers. I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength, which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.”   Ephesians 2:8–10 “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God – not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God‘s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.“   Ephesians 2:13 “But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ.“   Philippians 1:6 “being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.”
