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

Blessed with Christ-following parents that taught me about Jesus from the beginning. At the age of 4, pastor asked those to come forward who wanted to be saved. I tugged on my mom’s skirt and told her that I wanted to go forward. That day I asked Jesus to forgive me of my sins and be my Savior.

Being the pastor of CBC Borgfeld taught me how to love more deeply and trust more dependantly

Becoming a parent changed my understanding of life

Marrying Hanni impacted everything

Resigning from CBC Borgfeld – I believe that this is what the Spirit led, so therefore it should not be negative, but it has taught me that those who leave a ministry should be followed up with and ministered to. That doesn’t seem to be standard operating procedure in ministry

Understanding & overcoming spiritual abuse – not CBC, Independent Baptist

Having a close family member struggle with mental health – I wish I knew better how to help and support those struggling with mental health and the family members affected by it

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. To work in a church family full time for free

4. To have sufficient margin in my schedule to regularly meet with others for discipleship and ministry

5. To have a home big enough and nice enough to minister to missionaries when they are in the area – a home base for them
