Travis Wilkins discusses how recognizing and grounding oneself in their identity in Jesus is the source of greatest influence. Wilkins uses the example of Kobe Bryant, who impacted many through his dedication and service, but highlights Jesus as the ultimate influencer. Travis emphasizes that *being* in God's economy precedes *doing*, that Jesus demonstrated this by being baptized, receiving the Holy Spirit, and having his identity affirmed by God. This established a permanent connection between heaven and earth, showing everyone how to live a life of influence. Wilkins stresses that identity in Christ empowers believers to overcome lies, live confidently, and partner with God to restore the world, loving God and others. Finally, he invites the audience to embrace their identity in Christ and offers avenues for prayer, repentance, and baptism. Travis encourages listeners to text "influence" to receive daily affirmations of their identity in Christ.
