Your Primary was ‘The Beaver’, with your Secondary coming in as ‘The Lion’, and here are the descriptions of your Personalities, and how they can be used for God

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

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

At 6 years old I felt like the worst sinner in the whole world and asked Jesus to come into my life and forgive me. 9-10-17 told Jesus He was Lord of my life

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

20 years SS teacher in every age group, choir director, pianist, bookkeeper in local church

7 years Christian program developer and implementer (women & children) , office mgr, set up financial system, wrote policies and procedures

10 yrs support staff–built credentialing program for TTUHSC and maintained student records at AC

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

Filling in as needed; learning new jobs when I had no experience

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:

very harsh and abusive with my preschoolers

no clue what Christian marriage/parenting looked like

very perfectionistic with unrealistic expectations
