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

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

[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

As far back as I can remember I’ve believed and I would pray the sinners prayer and accept Christ every time I heard it offered. I remember feeling physically changed and that I had encountered something special at a sleep away church camp during a night of prayer and invitation.

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

Cason United Methodist- children and youth ministries.

Soup kitchens, homeless shelters and food banks.

19:10 Church- Worship host, greeter, kids ministry, re:fuel, connections, re:store.

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

Being surrounded by strong women of faith.

Encountering the Holy Spirit and complete peace during delivery complications.

Being connected to a church family.

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:

Absent father.

Delivery complications and the loss that followed.

Divorce.
