From Ministry to Homelessness: Loss of Belief and Sunk Cost

This chapter explores the speakers' transition from being in ministry to becoming homeless, including their loss of belief in the mission and the challenges of justifying abuse and experiencing a sunk cost. They discuss their experience of being financially exploited by a cult-like group and the difficulties of leaving unhealthy relationships within certain communities. The chapter concludes with reflections on the aftermath of leaving the business and the relatability of their story for those who have been in high control situations.
