Why Skipping the Evaluation Phase Destroys Your Ability to Rebuild financially

00:00 / 00:08:48

In this episode, we show how skipping the evaluation phase can sabotage your entire rebuilding process. Drawing from Luke 14:28–29, where Jesus teaches the importance of “counting the cost,” we directly connect this principle to financial recovery after unexpected events.

You’ll discover why assessing the true cost of your damage is the essential first step. We explain how failing to estimate rebuilding expenses creates confusion and costly surprises, and we reveal why many people begin the recovery process but can’t finish. Through real‑world examples and practical guidance, this episode equips you to evaluate your situation clearly, plan wisely, and avoid the pitfalls that derail financial restoration.

By the end, you’ll be able to answer three critical questions:

1. Have you assessed the damage?

2. Do you know the cost to rebuild?

3. Have you identified the risks that could stop your progress?
