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

I accepted the Lord in second grade during a chapel service at school.

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

Kids Check in Team and FPU coordinator – the Life Church, Manassas, VA
2010-Fall 2018

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

Meeting my now husband and waiting 2 years to date him because God told us to wait until we had finished college to pursue a romantic relationship

working for a Christian boss for 6 years doing a job I loved

I have some key friendships that have helped make me who I am today

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:

having to choose a relationship with my parents over a relationship with 2 of my sisters, due to family issues that arose a few years ago (my sisters forced the choice)

had a very toxic, passive aggressive boss that I had to learn to stand up to before quitting my job

our now 2 year old son had open heart surgery at 2 months old. (We didn’t learn anything was wrong until he was 1 month old.) That was a very difficult time in our lives
