Jesus said it twice as often as the Great Commission. We ignored it. (Ep. 2)

Twice.
That's how often Jesus talked about the poor compared to the Great Commission. We have built entire movements around the Great Commission. Most Christians have never heard the rest.
In Episode 2 of ROI Ministry: The Don't Bury It Podcast, host Tim Barker walks through the research his team did on the words of Jesus — how often He spoke about the poor, the lost, generosity, money, and the kingdom — and what shows up when the data is laid out side by side. The episode reframes the modern Christian's mental list of Jesus' core teachings, exposes the verses we skipped, and lands on a single, hard question: if Jesus said it twice as often, why don't we teach it twice as often?
In this episode, you'll hear:
- The verse-count research: how often Jesus actually mentioned the poor, the lost, generosity, and money
- Why the Great Commission gets preached and the "least of these" doesn't
- The 3,000× to 30,000× result when giving is directed to the poorest and least reached
- What "bear fruit that will last" actually means in stewardship terms
- Why motivation matters — Jesus attached rewards, not guilt, to wise generosity
- The parable of the talents, and what the third servant's "buried coin" actually represents
This is not a guilt trip. It is a re-ordering.
