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

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

I pursued football like my life depended on it. I wanted to make it to the NFL so bad, I tried to bride God by coming to church in return for an NFL contract. When that didn’t work, I upped the ante and told God that in addition to coming to church weekly, I’d read the Bible every single day from cover to cover. In that process, He changed me. I received salvation, got baptized, and watched the Holy Spirit change me from the inside out.

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

Christ Church – Teen Director 2019-2020
Rockaway, NJ

Christ Church – Missions 2018-2019

Christ Church – Pastoral Assistant 2018

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

Not achieving my dream of playing in the NFL because I realized I neglected a relationship with Jesus, didn’t abide by His precepts, and was committing idolatry.

Being committed to training and preparing for football which carried over into life.

Not receiving the knowledge, information, and wisdom when I was in high school that I know now that I wished I received then.

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 relationship with my father.

Being sexually abused.

Seeing the consequences of my brothers actions.
