I have come so they can have real and eternal life, more and better life than they ever dreamed of.”                                                                                      John 10:10 (The Message)

 

What does it mean to have an Extreme Makeover?

 

“But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions -- it is by grace you have been saved. And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, in order that in the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed in kindness to us in Christ Jesus.”

Ephesians 2:4-7
