#1 Gift, Administration (93%)

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
It’s what I’ve been doing my whole life…always organizing, planning, being critical, and leading others with direction and structure.

#2 Gift, Exhortation/Encouragement (90%)

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I am a prophet and it’s what I relate to the most, so I find it super funny that I only have 59% in that category….every other test I’ve taken has me in the 90% range for prophecy, but prophecy really is the edifying, exhortation, and counseling of the church soooo I guess this makes sense.

#3 Gift, Teaching (90%)

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I want to teach people how to cultivate a prophetic culture, kingdom mindset, and a culture of honour. I want to teach people that worship is so much more than raising your hands while a band is playing and that you have to make history with Jesus. I feel like prophets also have to relate closely with the five fold ministry of teaching as well.

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

This will take like 5 hours and at least 4 cups of coffee.

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

Iglesia La Mision / Rancho De Sus Ninos
Tijuana, MEXICO
2 years

Hope Foursquare
Snohomish, WA
5 years

Marysville Foursquare
Marysville, WA
2 years

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

While at Rancho, I received vocabulary for things I’ve been experiencing my whole life (like prophetic stuff) and it really helped me with realizing my purpose + my identity.

In Mexico, I gained family and many spiritual mom’s and dad’s and that’s not something I’ve ever really had before. Community and true friends.

Being apart of a worship band (Musica La Mision) and singing with Jesus Culture and the like made me realize my dreams are obtainable but I am going to have to work SO hard for them.

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:

Me and all my friends being fired from Hope…. so I can closely relate with people who have been severely burned from the church.

Being spiritually and kinda physically an orphan and unwanted, but my parents are still alive. Helping people find their tribe and create family and build community around them.

Traumatic life experiences have given me anxiety and depression, so learning how to find JOY has me really amped to help people overcome these mental obstacles.

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. BUILD MY COFFEE SHOP / HEALING ROOMS. ALSO DROP A RECORD OR SPOKEN WORD ALBUM.

4. PUNCH FEAR IN THE FACE / AHAVAH PEOPLE WELL.

5. GOD IS GOOD. ALL THE TIME.
