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 responded to an alter call at about the age of 10 at the Chapel of Resurrection, University of Ibadan. My parents were actively involved in the church and my world at the time was the university community and so i naturally tended to the things of God even at that age(boys brigade, choir etc). In the year 2000, however, i rededicated my life at The Stone Church, Mokola, Ibadan.

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

Chorister, Chapel of The Resurrection Choir, University of Ibadan, 1994 – 1999

Associate Pastor, The Abiding Word Gathering Campus Fellowship, Abia State University, 2002 – 2005

Bishop, NCCF Bafarawa sub-zone, Sokoto state, 2006 – 2007
Head Usher, The House That Wisdom Built Ministry, Oregun/ojota, Lagos, 2012 – 2014
Assistant to Men’s Leader, The House that Wisdom Built, Oregun/ojota, Lagos, 2012 – 2015
Moderator, The House that Wisdom Built, Oregun/ojota, Lagos, 2012 – 2015

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

The opportunity to visit other campuses back in school and minister. The delight and desire for ministry was ignited then.

Going on ministry and leadership retreats to outskirts of the city while i was a member of The House that Wisdom Built Ministry.

Serving in a far-away land(Bafarawa, sokoto state. It was a bordering community to Niger Republic). There was vast empty land mass all around and my time of community service as well as personal reflection, prayer and meditation out in the open helped shape my paradigm.

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 demise of my father in my final year at school.

Being involved in bus accident back in school were some people were seriously injured and i came out unhurt (our bus tumbled into a valley). The trauma of being involved in that situation.

When my wife almost lost her pregnancy and the pressure/pain we felt at the time. I then try to imagine what those who actually loose their pregnancy would go through emotionally and otherwise.
