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

Accepted Christ when I was 9 at Eastwood Baptist Church (had actually made the decision when I was 8, but made it public then.)

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

Glenview Baptist Church young married class. Cliff taught and I did the administration/ contacting/ shepherding of the class members.

IMB missionary. . . taught in English clubs; ran AYU sewing business with national ladies in Indonesia

youth ministry at Arlington Baptist Church

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

AYU ministry… taught me the importance of faith and relying on God to provide, and how God can use someone no matter where they think their gifts and talents may lie.

youth group in Goodlettsville, TN. . .positive people like Ken and Anita speaking into my life as well as all my youth group friends.

Cliff. . . his constant, consistent leadership towards the things of God

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:

moving overseas to do missionary work. I can relate to others going through similar emotional trauma and dealing with culture shock.

being sick for 10 years. I can relate well to others who are sick and have ways to help them and encourage them.

moving so much. I hate moving but have learned to bloom where you are planted. Gives me desire to reach out to those new in the community/ church.
