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

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 have always been exposed to Christian life and community and always thought that not being oppositional to being a part of it made me a Christian . I actually gave my heart to Christ when I returned to church after a period of staying away because of my deteriorating marriage and emotional distress and actually started to receive and digest and understand the word of God at TLC. It was a gradual process of resolution but happened around 2016.

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

Taught Sunday school to children at Our Lady of the Angels Catholic church, St Andrew Jamaica for about 2 years

Was a part of a feeding programme and visitation programme at The People of Praise, St Andrew Jamaica for several years during my teenage years

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

Being a part of Ministry, and seeing my parents be in Ministry

My career in Aviation

My experience as a parent

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 experience with molestation

My almost failed marriage

My experience with sickness and hospitalization with my children
