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

I was raised a Jehovah’s Witness. I stopped going for several years and when I married Travis we went to Church of Christ but due to change in leadership and how it was handled, I became inactive again. Then we found Spirit Church

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

I haven’t really served anywhere except being a Jehovah’s Witness where we would go preaching from door to door. I was very strong into this for a while, especially from 18-26. I was averaging anywhere 30 to 90 hours a month.

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

Marrying Travis had a big impact on me. I moved up here where I needed to build a new life away from my family.

My current job has made a big impact on my and who I am. They are always challenging me to create relationships and to encourage and coach my team.

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:

I had struggled in childhood with a mother who was Bipolar and always in bed.

I had a 5 year relationship with an abusive man. He was abusive mentally and emotional.

i am a compulsive emotional eater
