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

Otter- Otters are very social creature. Otter personalities love people. They enjoys being popular and influencing and motivating others. Otter can sometimes be hurt when people do not like them. Otter personalities usually have lots of friends, but not deep relationships. They love to goof-off. (They are notorious for messy rooms.) Otters like to hurry and finish jobs. (Jobs are not often done well.) The otter personality is like Tigger in Winnie The Pooh.

Strength: People person, open, positive
Weakness: Talks too much, too permissive
Limitation: Remembering past commitments, follow through with discipline

[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

Had a wayward life, needed a change, heard fire and brimstone message but, mostly of how Jesus Loves me. I knew I needed a Savior. Asked Jesus into my life and haven’t looked back since 1989.

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

Executive Secretary-Christ Church of Queen Creek, Queen Creek, AZ served 4 years

Choir member, Nursery worker-Family of Faith Fellowship, Queen Creek, Az served 3 years

Church Secretary and in the Choir-Southeast Valley Baptist Church, Gilbert, Az served 10 years

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

Neighbor reaching out to my parents at the age of 9 asking me to go to church. She told my parents “every child needs to know who God is”.

Missions trip to Africa and Italy to help Missionaries on the field

Donating my time to the Salvation Army around the Holiday’s and listening to peoples story and gratitude of having a meal.

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:

Passed Divorce and Domestic violence

Childhood abuse

Not being heard when I needed help from Authority figures in my life (Mom, Grandmother, God-mother, and neighbor that was like an Aunt and Uncle to me).

Everyone Else After those
