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

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

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

I became a Christian, April 29, 2008. I had a dream, the second of two that I had (Yes a dream). I had an encounter which made me realize I was running from the Lord. He called me to do something that I wasn’t doing and now I want to fulfill the purpose of God in my life.

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

Currently involved in the Prison’s Evangelical ministry at the General Penitentiary in Kingston CSO, Jamaica

People’s Church, 74 Maxfield Avenue, Kingston 13. I served as Men’s ministry leader for a while, and assisted the pastor in sharing the word and leading service.

Leader of Evangelisim at “Ministerio de Las Naciones” (The Nations) in Santiago Cuba for 4 years. Also served as a youth leader at my home church “Valle de bendicion Calle Quinta.” Where my Pastor is the serving Bishop/Overseer of the Evangelical Church of God in Cuba (2009-2013).

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

Having dreams about situations that I knew nothing about and seeing them come to life (Because God said it)

Experiencing God’s presence in the most difficult of circumstances.

Having Godly Mentors who encouraged me in Christ even before I became a Christian.

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:

When I lost vision in my left eye due to a retinal detachment which scared me as I thought I was going to be blind.

The death of my father (March 13, 2014). Now I have been able to stand with persons experiencing grief

Being depressed to the point of considering suicide but actually encountering the embrace of Christ in that moment.
