About the book

What do you do when everything blows up?

BOOM – What to Do When Life Blows Up Around You is the honest, hope-filled story of ROI Ministry founder Tim Barker—a self-described “average guy” who experienced loss, failure, and collapse in nearly every area of life. But through it all, God was writing a bigger story.

This hardcover book is part memoir, part mission. It offers hard-won wisdom, humor, and biblical truth to help readers turn pain into purpose, and align their giving with what matters most to God.

For over a decade, ROI Ministry has helped Christians give smarter by asking a simple question: What’s the Kingdom impact per dollar?

Inspired by the parables of the Minas and the Talents, BOOM challenges readers to love God with all their mind—as well as their heart, soul, and strength.

This isn’t just a book—it’s an invitation to purposeful generosity.

Your investment in this book launch helps place BOOM in the hands of givers, donors, and future difference-makers. Each copy becomes a seed, a thank-you, and a touchpoint toward lasting Kingdom return.

All net proceeds from BOOM support vetted, high-impact ministries through ROI Ministry.
