ii) We've just begun this series
iii) This is not the Bible
(1) This is not a replacement for the Bible
(2) It's a way to understand your Bible.
(3) It makes your Bible read like a novel.
iv) Summing up the Bible: This is the account of how far gone has gone, and how far God will go to restore a relationship with broken people like us.
c) A quick review:
i) Chapter one was all about creation
(1) It's all God
(2) It's all good
(3) It all breaks
(4) It's not over
ii) Chapter two was about the birth of a nation
(1) God chooses an elderly infertile couple to begin this nation.
(2) A least likely choice...how God usually works!
iii) Now we get to one of the greatest stories in the Bible
d) Open or click your Bible to Genesis 37
i) We are going to talk today about Joseph
ii) How many of you remember this?

e) Get out your journals:

ii) Big Idea: God's level of control isn't dependent on your level of understanding.
2) Controlling the Outcome
a) Books where you choose
i) Many of you will remember the CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE series of books
ii) They sold over 250 million copies
iii) Here's how they worked...
(1) You get to a point in the story and then you get to choose which way the story will go...
(2) If you want to attempt to slay the dragon... turn to page 87
(3) If you want to attempt to flee from the dragon... turn to page 102
iv) If it didn't go the way you wanted it to go... you could always just back up and choose differently
