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

Grew up in a Christian home. Attended church every time the doors were open. Read a tract called why a boy should be a Christian in March 1968 and gave my life to Christ on that Wednesday evening

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

Hilltown Baptist, Hilltown Pa. 40 years. Elder, Sunday school teacher, nursery worker, small group leader, church building maintenance and repair

Calvary Chapel, Delta Pa. 14 years. Small group leader, church building maintenance.

Corona Worship Center, Corona De Tucson, AZ, 7 years. Church planting, elder, small group leader, church set-up and break-down, visitation, Pastoral support.

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

During my dating life I was not necessarily looking for a life long mate or a believer to settle down with. During that time the Lord protected me from making a life-long mistake through my reckless attitude. He eventually brought my wife into my life who was the perfect mate for me and has helped me to stay focused on God and family over many years and trials.

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 strained and often times hostile relationship with my in-laws who are not believers has given me a greater sensitivity towards other people in my position. It has also influenced my relationships with my childrens spouses or friends.

In the past 10 years or so the Lord has put mostly failure and discouragement in my path in every area of my life. It has given me a greater drive to encourage other younger believers to enjoy the Lords blessing on their lives while they have them.
