Your Primary was ‘The Retriever’, with your Secondary coming in as ‘The Otter’, 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

Otter- Otters are very social creature. Otter personalities love people. They enjoys being popular and influencing and motivating others. Otter can sometimes be hurt when people do not like them. Otter personalities usually have lots of friends, but not deep relationships. They love to goof-off. (They are notorious for messy rooms.) Otters like to hurry and finish jobs. (Jobs are not often done well.) The otter personality is like Tigger in Winnie The Pooh.

Strength: People person, open, positive
Weakness: Talks too much, too permissive
Limitation: Remembering past commitments, follow through with discipline

[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

At 8 years old, at Daily Vacation Bible School….realized I was that sinner that needed Jesus as my Savior-pad my sin debt & filled me with a desire to be more like him in all my life – and each SS teacher, youth ldr helped

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

Local churches where we lived…..moved many times….

missionary in PNW –

Worked in another ministry as a donor rep-thanking them….now with hubby as he is a church & ministry consultant-world-wide

List 3 Positive experiences from the past that made a big impact on who you are today:

Each step God showed Himself to be real…..

Our wonderful family – grans

Our church family as we grow & share life together

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:

Seeing husband lose job because he stood for right…seeing how God opened even greater opportunities to him…..who would have thunk it?

But God.
