Have you ever paid for something you didn't even know you were paying for?

In this episode, Austin Gardner dives into one of the "strangest" passages in the Bible—Hebrews 7—to reveal a life-changing truth: In Christ, you were there.

Using the "Airplane Principle" from his days as a missionary in Peru, Austin explains that your identity isn't something you achieve through behavior; it’s something you receive through location. Just as Levi was "in the loins of Abraham" when he paid tithes, you were "in Christ" when He died and rose again.

Stop asking: "Am I enough?" or "Am I accepted?"
Start realizing: If you are in the plane, you are going where the pilot is going.

In this teaching, you’ll discover:

• Why "trying harder" to be like Jesus isn't the Christian life.
• The mystery of Representative Identity (Adam vs. Christ).
• How to live from a posture of rest rather than a cycle of performance.
• Why God doesn't relate to you outside of His Son.
