SCRIPTURE: Luke 14:28-30 "For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not sit down first and count the cost, whether he has enough to finish it—lest, after he has laid the foundation, and is not able to finish, all who see it begin to mock him"

📖 OVERVIEW OF LUKE 14:28-30
These verses present Jesus' teaching on the importance of counting the cost before undertaking any significant endeavor, using the analogy of building a tower.

🔑 KEY CONCEPTS
PRUDENT PLANNING: The passage emphasizes the wisdom of careful planning and assessment before committing to a project.

PUBLIC ACCOUNTABILITY: Jesus highlights the public shame that comes from starting something without the resources to finish it.

🎯 CONTEXTUAL SIGNIFICANCE
DISCIPLESHIP APPLICATION: While using construction as an example, Jesus is ultimately teaching about the cost of discipleship and following Him.

STEWARDSHIP PRINCIPLE: This teaches that faith doesn't mean irresponsible planning, but rather wise stewardship of resources while trusting God.
