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

Lion- This personality likes to lead. The lion is good at making decisions and is very goal-oriented. They enjoy challenges, difficult assignments, and opportunity for advancement. Because lions are thinking of the goal, they can step on people to reach it. Lions can be very aggressive and competitive. Lions must learn not to be too bossy or to take charge in other’s affairs.

Strength: Goal-oriented, strong, direct
Weakness: Argumentative, too dictatorial
Limitation: Doesn’t understand that directness can hurt others, hard time expressing grace

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

About a year ago, I slowly allowed myself to stop being so skeptical, and when I did I felt God calling for me in so many ways. As he worked on my heart for months, small changes started happening. I was getting closer to a bunch of Christian friends– they were always a positive influence and a great group to spend my summer with. I also started reading the Bible for the first time, privately in my room. At the peak of this, just as I was starting to consider finding a church, my friend Chad could sense I was changing spiritually, and invited me Journey. Since then (September 2017), I have giving my life to Christ, made tons of friends, helped at the Avon Workdays, served at FaLaLa, gotten baptized, and now serve VIP.

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

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

Joining Revision Films youth group

Going vegan

Discovering a passion for theatre back in 7th grade

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:

My brother’s drug addiction

Depression, poor self image, and self harm
