Your Primary was ‘The Retriever’, with your Secondary coming in as ‘The Beaver’, and here are the descriptions of your Personalities, and how they can be used for God

Golden Retriever- Good at making friends. Very loyal. Retriever personalities do not like big changes. They look for security. Can be very sensitive. Very caring. Has deep relationships, but usually only a couple of close friends. Wants to be loved by everyone. Looks for appreciation. Works best in a limited situation with a steady work pattern.

Strength: Accommodating, calm, affirming
Weakness: Indecisive, indifferent, unable to express emotional, too soft on other people
Limitation: Seeing the need to be more assertive, holding others accountable

Beaver- Organized. Beavers think that there is a right way to do everything and they want to do it exactly that way. Beaver personalities are very creative. They desire to solve everything. Desire to take their time and do it right. Beavers do not like sudden changes. They need reassurance.

Strength: High standards, order, respect
Weakness: Unrealistic expectations of self & others, too perfect.
Limitation: Seeing the optimistic side of things, expressing flexibility

[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

I was raised in the church and was Baptized as a young child. When my parents divorced my father used scripture to tell me why he left and that kinda pushed me away from a relationship with Christ however always new he was with me. Came back to Christ much later in life to truly put God first and have a relationship with my Lord and Savior.

Ministry Experience (Where I have served in the past, if applicable, including ChurchName, City/State, Position, Years Involved):

Choir and Sunday school teacher @ Salem United Methodist Church Havana Florida in the 90’s.

Praise Team @ The Gathering Valdosta, GA for 2 years

Prayer Team @ The Gathering for 1 year

Going on the South Georgia Walk To Emmaus

Being apart of a Prayer Team

Being a part of my Daughter getting clean

List 3 Negative Experiences from your past that have helped to Shape me, but also have given you great compassion for others going through similar circumstances:

Being sexually abused as a young child.

Wrapping It Up
