Your Primary was ‘The Beaver’, with your Secondary coming in as ‘The Otter’, and here are the descriptions of your Personalities, and how they can be used for God

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

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

The deciding factor in my becoming a Christian was when i got sick with a stroke in 2015. I had been looking for a church recently and came to TLC in 2013. I was thinking of becoming a Christian but always hesitated due to the choices in my life and being unwilling to let things go. When i became ill, i had an encounter with Jesus and seeing his goodness in healing me and allowing me to recover, made me decide to become Christian

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

TLC Kidz ministry – last 3-4 years

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

A relationship that i was in, which while it was negative at the time, allowed me to learn who i am and what i deserve

My education and training to become a project manager

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:

The death of my mom

My illness (I have sickle cell)

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. Administration of a large office or house

4. Travelling the world (however i have a physical limitation where long period of travel can get me sick)

5. Real estate ‘management’ – not in the financial sense, but re the admin of a property, the designing of a property and ensuring that people are equipped to do their jobs
