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

Christian home, walking home from school felt the Holy Spirit say “Now is the time” so it was a very real experience for me that I never doubted

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

Too many to list – always have done teaching and training

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

Wife for 38+ years, both kids godly young adults who married godly young adults, 3 wonderful grandchildren, oldest has accepted Christ

Trained in in and facilitate training in the OZ Principle for Accountability Training

Trained in the Baldrige Criteria for Business Performance Excellence

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:

Hard church situations – passion to help ministers in those circumstances

Business failure – understand soul-proprietor business owners better and relate to them

Walked alongside both parents as they died (old age) and now mother-in-law with Alzheimers
