Your Primary was ‘The Retriever’, with your Secondary coming in as ‘The Lion’, 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

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

[E]xperience

I Became a Christian as a child, giving my life to the lord going to formerly Covenant Community Church I got baptized at 9 and backslid at 14, I saw my brother come back to the lord in 2008 and I watched how God transformed him. I then rededicated my life to the lord after seeing my brother’s transformation.

I have Served at Transformed Life Church as Media Team for 4 years and as media team lead for 3 years

Being in service to the lord I have been given the opportunity to experience him in a new and even more real way. When the ladies came down from the king Jesus ministries Elder Mickey came to me behind the Media desk the night we had a worship experience that involved them, and when elder Micky Came to me and laid her hand on my chest, she said to me God is restoring your identity, it is a generational curse and it breaks with you.

I had a very painful break-up but through it, God used it to teach me to look to him because my Joy comes from him and I learned that Circumstance + Perspective = Experience (C+P=E). So God taught me to look at him and the things I can thank him for and because of that I have found that through him I have continuos Joy no matter what I’m going through
