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

A college classmate invited me to KBCF. The Gospel was shared with me. I was discipled which helped me in my spiritual growth.

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

All in KBCF: Choir (1985-2004, now just on-call), Scroll (Dec. 1985-June 1993; 1994 onwards just on-call to write or proofread)

elected Deacon (1992-1994)
Tithes and Offerings Counter (2006 to present)

Sunday School teacher (2013-2016)

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

1. years of discipleship with my discipler
2. becoming a wife
3. given the privilege and responsibility of becoming a mother

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:

1. I had a blighted pregnancy/miscarriage. We waited for eight years before our only child was “given” by God.

2. (not negative, but sad) I opted to resign from work to personally care for my mother with Alzheimer’s disease. My husband and I took care of her for four years.

3. (not negative, but challenging) Raising up our son with Learning Disability, Mild Autism, and Attention Deficit Disorder.

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)?

1. My Relationship with GOD

2. My Relationship with Others

Putting Your Spouse First
Your Kids Second
Everyone Else After those

3. I would disciple a new believer wife or an adult single lady.

4. I would assist the Sunday School teachers.

5. I would share the Gospel at every opportunity I’ll have.
