Variety

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

Otter- Otters are very social creature. Otter personalities love people. They enjoys being popular and influencing and motivating others. Otter can sometimes be hurt when people do not like them. Otter personalities usually have lots of friends, but not deep relationships. They love to goof-off. (They are notorious for messy rooms.) Otters like to hurry and finish jobs. (Jobs are not often done well.) The otter personality is like Tigger in Winnie The Pooh.

Strength: People person, open, positive
Weakness: Talks too much, too permissive
Limitation: Remembering past commitments, follow through with discipline

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

I grew up in the catholic church and distanced myself from the curch as a teenager. After I had my first child, my husband and I went thru some financial issues and we decided to go back to church when we found Christ accepting us back with so much love and blessings.

The chapel – Buffalo NY – children ministry

MCC – Terre Haute IN – children ministry

MCC Terre Haute IN – C group leader

Tithing even when we didn’t have the money

Listen to God when He asked me to stop doing something

Forgive people

Being judged by other Christians because of actions they believed were more important than people

Having fun at all cost attitude got me in trouble before

going thru financial trouble thought me so much about financial stewardship

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 have a dream that all Christian churches (evangelicals, all denominations, catholics, etc) would join together as oneonly church (as God designed), but with different “ways of celebrating”. One accepting another’s way of worship (if if is focusing on Christ)

4. Help mom of small kids to stay focused on the big picture and how the everyday service to kids and husbands is part of the great story of God

5. Develop a understanding environment in the church providing tools to people with the gift of evangelism can attract
