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

I was nine years old, and I remember the Sunday morning when the invitation was given when I practically ran down the isle. I had been talking to my parents about wanting to give my life to Jesus for a brief period of time before that Sunday. and, “the longer I serve Him, the sweeter He grows.”

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

Iago Federated Church (church where I grew up) choir
Hyde Park Baptist Church (during college at UT) – choir
Tallowood Baptist church (young single and early in our marriage) – teacher, worship team, choir, etc.
Redeemer Community Church (1997-2007) Worship team, teacher, women’s ministry
Current Christian Church (2007-2020) worship team, children’s helper

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

My career as an educator

My marriage to Leonard

My Godly friends
