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

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

[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

Was raised in the church but never really new God, I studied him more so than actually followed him and eventually when my mother and grandfather died i grew resentful, eventually all my anger, anxiety and fear boiled over and I became a broken human. Somehow with the grace of God my fear and doubts led me back to Christ and remembering everything i learned in the past clicked and i was led to even more truths that ultimately solidified my relationship with Christ. I see the world completely differently and much more positively

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

The First baptist church of Orlando,
Salem Luthern Church of Orlando

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

Meeting my soon to be wife

Reconciling with my Father and learning the many secrets of my family kept

Discovering the truth in world around us

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:

The death and suffering of my mother

Spiraling into a massive depression and losing many months of my life to anxiety attacks

Losing friends in high school due to petty politics I had no part in. Which ended up me being barred from youth fellowship

Wrapping It Up

The Challenge: Based upon your S.H.A.P.E. Assessment above (the way God wired you), If you knew you couldn’t fail … and ‘lack of money, or time’ was not an obstacle… list your Top 3 Things you would ‘Focus’ your Life on, next to #1 Loving God & #2 Loving Your Neighbor (these would be your ‘3 God-Sized Dreams’ for your life)?
