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

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

[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

Grew up in a traditional United Methodist Church, attended friends’ churches, attended Methodist Camp Glisson. Camp is where I had the most spiritual experiences and conversations that made me stronger rooted in my faith with better understanding of my faith and the scripture. Baptized as a baby and again when I was 18, reaffirming my public statement to the world that I am a born again Christian. God has always been with me in my darkest moments, and through every moment. He is my creator, my Father, and friend.

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

Sam Jones UMC -Cartersville GA, Choir, 6 years

LifePoint, Cartersville GA, Childcare, 2 years

CrossPoint, Cartersville GA, Childcare, 6 months

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

Camp Glisson every summer for one week from 3rd grade through 12th grade.

Involvement in the choir through several churches/school.

Being a student at KSU has grown me and given me more confidence to stand out and pursue my goals.

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:

Diagnosed with Major Depression and Anxiety in High School

Having a brother facing drug addiction and mental illness

Unspoken incident
