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

Witnessed to through a meet up with old friends. Searching for a church and finding one to attend. Through attending weekly meetings with the pastor there and discussions with our children, I was brought to salvation and baptized there 2 years ago.

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

Anchor Baptist Church
3300 Hwy 50
Little River, SC 29566

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

Spending time with Christians and noticing their joy and positive attitude on life.

Meeting up with our old friends after 20 years. I know that God put us there together.

Attending church with our family members on different occasions and feeling the fellowship.

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:

Mother passing when I was 10 years old. This taught me early in life to know what death is and understand the importance of spending eternity with God.

Not having any religious upbringing as a child. I always felt that something was missing but did not realize what it was until much later in life.

In general, just watching and feeling all the selfishness and unhappiness in the world around me.
