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

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

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

[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

I professed Jesus as Savior at the age of 17 at a church youth camp but made a conscious decision to follow Him as Lord in my early 20’s. I was discipled in college by a college minister who understood aspects of discipleship including, prayer, reading the Word, evangelism, tithes & offerings, and fellowship.

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

First Baptist Euless, Texas – Deacon, Youth Leader, Single Adult Leader, Couples Leader, since 2007v to present.

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

My parents and grandparents lived as good examples as Christians.

My College pastor and wife were instrumental in discipling me.

Pursuing Christ through reading the Word, attending seminars to learn more about God.

Not deciding to live for Christ during some of my youth.
