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

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

It’s not grand. I was 12 and for months I just kept feeling like God was calling me to the alter and that Sunday I just gave in and went up. I always believed that Jesus died for my sins I was just too afraid to take the step.

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

Currently serving in TLC Kidz and welcome experience

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

Going to Sunday school every Sunday as a child. I think that helped to keep me grounded to God during challenging times in my life

Having encouraging people in my life when I was young has helped me to want to be the same for others

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 mother passed away when I was 15. That has really shaped who I am. I work so hard to make her proud

My family life during childhood was so very hostile. A lot of fighting and quarrelling. That has made me very determined to be a peacemaker and foster peaceful environments

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’d love to be able to spend uninterrupted time learning about God

4. I’d love to have an early childhood education school for underprivileged kids that offers top notch education for free

5. Provide for people in need. Especially food. I don’t believe anyone should be hungry
