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

When I was in second grade I gave my life to Christ at my church’s VBS. Throughout my youth years I re-committed my life to Christ. There isn’t a time in my life I ever remember not having a relationship with God. I’ve always had a firm foundation in Christ and my relationship with Him.

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

Aldersgate United Methodist Church, Seminole, Florida-Youth Group Summer Intern and youth leader during my college years. During high school I served on our youth group’s worship team.

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

My involvement in my youth group in high school and as a youth leader through college.

2 mission trips to the Dominican Republic with my church after high school and college. These trips put a passion in my heart for missions.

Having amazing bible study leaders through high school.

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:

Growing up with a father who was/is an alcoholic
