#1 Gift, Serving (81%)

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I enjoy serving others just as Christ modelled – servant leadership. I’ve also been given more opportunities to serve and enjoy doing so especially if it’s in the background – could be because of my introverted nature.

#2 Gift, Teaching (81%)

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
Others have told me so. I enjoy helping others know/understand truths in such a tangible/practical/relational way so they can change/grow to be all that God intends them to BE in Him.

#3 Gift, Pastoring/Shepherding (68%)

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
Basic need of individuals to be loved and nurtured – to be a channel/conduit of God’s love wrapped in skin for each individual He sends my way… “love them to death to self and life in Him”. To be the one who walks alongside those in need so they are encouraged to keep going/pressing on towards the goal of Christ Jesus.

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

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

Everyone Else After those
