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

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

After losing my mother at a young age I went into depression and with involvement at church I realized my need for a relationship with Jesus. I have served in music ministry for almost 15 years.

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

Youth Worship Leader = 6 years
Broadmoor Church of God

Youth Worship Leader = 5 years
Green Meadow Church of God

Sanctuary Worship Leader = 4 years
The Meadow Church of God

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

Mentored by Dan Walker (Senior Pastor/ Worship Leader)

Mentored by Ronald Reagan (Senior Pastor/ Evangelist)

Mentored by Chris Reneau (Senior Pastor/ Evangelist)

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:

Working at Gerdau away from my family and learning how to deal with difficult people.

Dealing with difficult people wanting changes in music ministry and how to not allow them to affect your attitude.

Losing a parent and how to not allow a major loss to cripple your emotional and spiritual conditions.
