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

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

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

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I have not thought about this gift for myself. I am a ministry student at IWU and I have never felt a passion to preach, but I have always felt the drive to pastor, guide, comfort, and counsel those members of the congregation that need encouragement and guidance in their walk.

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
Administration has always been something that I have been willing and able to do – and God has used that in incredible ways to help the kingdom. Most jobs I have worked in the past have had some component of administration and I thoroughly enjoy working through the details that need to be taken care of from behind the scenes.

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I have always had a passion for helping others – especially helping leaders in the church and allowing their job to run as smoothly as possible. I have a very willing spirit for this and typically am able to see where a need may be so that I can just in and serve.

[H]eart

1. – Behind the scenes administration and serving to make a large ministry event or program run smoothly.

2. – Mentoring, guiding, and providing spiritual accountability to my friends.

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

[E]xperience

I grew up in a Christian home, believing that God existed as of 8 years old but not actually following Him, wholeheartedlly til I was 17. I decided to actually ‘follow’ Christ after a brain injury wrecked by life and forced me to wrestle with my identity and purpose.

Montrose Bible Conference
Ministry Assitant
Montrose, PA

Evangelical Free Church of Montrose
Ministry Assistant
Montrose, PA

The River Church
Volunteer on and off for 3+ years
Marion, IN

Brain Injury – Learning to place identity in Christ

Moving Away from Home – Independance and development of individualistic faith

Many different ministry opportunities in different fields – Camp Ministry, Church Ministry, Non-for-Profit, Parachurch – All showing my how diverse Kingdom work is. Exposure to many differet denominations growing up also was a positive experience in seeing how denominiation should work together.

Lack of discipleship in my church in high school – As I was going through physical health problems, the church did not check up on my spiritual health and therefore I walked away from the church.

Brain Injury – Physical injury but drew my close to God

4. Mentoring/Discipling – more than just caring for my relationships I would wish to go above and beyond and truly CARE for people.

5. God-Sized Dream of caring for those that are spiritually burnt out by creating a retreat center that is designated for those in ministry.

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I have been an involved Christian for most of my life. This has given me an opportunity to listen to many people who are much smarter than I am, with many different viewpoints on many different topics. I enjoy taking these viewpoints and engaging in an open discussion on how God would have us act in the world.

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
Giving and serving were equal on my quiz, and I would agree with that. To me, they are very similar. Giving of time, talent, and treasure are all something that God requests of us.

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
Since time is something I have very little of, it is the most precious gift I can give.

[H]eart

1. Spending time with my family

2. Singing

3. Spending time outdoors

People who are genuinely interested in learning. I don’t enjoy large group teaching because there usually are people who don’t care about what we are learning about, but small groups are great. I enjoy spending time with folks that are my own age the most, but I don’t mind working with kids.

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

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’ve been one for all my life. I grew up with an amazing set of Christian parents who instructed me in the basics and set me up in situations where I could learn and make my own decisions as to what I truly believed. I’ve had some amazing mentors and friends over the years that have helped me grow in the belief that Christ is, and always has been, my Lord, Savior, and Guide.

Kanakuk summer camp – Christian sports camp that truly immerses you in how to be a Christian in your everyday life

Small group bible study in college – learned a lot about who I am and what I believe

youth group as a high schooler – had a wonderful mentor who helped me by his example as a Godly man

Most recent church. Have been there for over 10 years. Found out that a Sunday School teacher was not treating our son well, which was the last impetus to leave. Since leaving, not one person has asked us where we went or why we left. Quite sad.

Have seen many people in the past use the Bible to browbeat others or shame them. This isn’t a good way to win believers to Christ. Saying “You must believe as I do or you will burn” has an offputting effect, to put it mildly.

Was part of a church league softball team at another church. Discovered that if the people around me are acting in a non-Christian way (ie yelling at the ump, cursing), that I have a tendency to start acting that way as well. The company we keep does affect our attitudes and actions. I have tried to surround myself with Christian friends who have the same moral attitudes that I want to display to the rest of the world.

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. To live my life such that people ask what is different about him. I don’t need to yell or scream the gospel from the top of the mountain – I want people to just see it when they look at me and my actions.

4. Sing every week in church

5. Eliminate food insecurity in Kansas City. People shouldn’t have to worry about where their next meal comes from.

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I am an educator in a school system currently. I also have a gift of teaching because I learn by explaining and making hard topics more simple. I enjoy the challenge of informing people of Biblical truths and what is being said.

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
Based on Strength Finders test my core strengths are all logic based; analytical, strategic, futuristic, disciplined, belief, and restorative. With all of those being my strengths I love organizing and planning things. I am very analytical and strategic and prefer the back ground stuff of planning things. I am also an Athletic Director and there is a lot of administration work with that and I strive for excellence in that job since it is something I love to do and improve on.

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I was kind of shocked by this gift, but it might have shown up because I enjoy explaining the Bible and using my life as a living testimony. I want everyone I come in contact with to see Jesus through me and see His glory and not my own. I am not positive about this gift besides incorporating my teaching gift and sharing Jesus in daily conversations.

[H]eart

1. I love to volunteer and serve at Campus Life and connect with the high school students.

2. Reading and learning more information from books gives me joy especially when I get to share it with others.

3. I love to help out at different things in order to know it ran smoothly, but I do not need credit for it.

The age group I prefer to work with are 6th grade to 12th grade or college students.

Adolescent ministries are a concern because they need to be done well and be organized in order for the students to grow and learn and to have an impactful take away. College ministry would sound exciting and be an awesome platform for some development and growth for leaders.

Spiritual laziness

[A]bilities

Physical and Health Education Teacher, Athletic Director, and Basketball Coach

Garden Center, Fitness Center desk worker, referee, intramural program manager, and resident assistant.

I have a talent of discernment and understanding spiritual and emotional situations that not everyone sees. Other talents/skills are I work well with others, responsible, organized, and adaptable.

I have taught my whole life; I was a middle school intern and gave Biblical lessons each week, I teach health and PE for all age ranges, I have spoken at chapel at The King’s Academy, I have spoken in front of my church growing up, I have spoken at 4:12, and I have taught Biblical truths through the sports ministry that I partook in for 4 summers.

My most valuable asset is I forgive easily and thoroughly and I love to work with people and know people so that I can love them and pour into them.

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

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

[E]xperience

I accepted Jesus into my heart when I was 5 at Sunday School, but my faith did not become my own until high school where I was put through different situations and I had to decide to hold onto Jesus or let him go. I held on and since high school I kept wanting to know Jesus more.

Middle School Intern- Hillside Church, Armonk, NY (1 year)

The River- Kids Kreek, 4:12, and Student Ministry strategy teams
Years involved (3 years)

Camp counselor & coach- UW Sports Ministry -Bluffton, SC & Montrose Bible Conference-Montrose, PA (4 years)

Being a part of sports teams in high school taught me dedication, responsibility, and commitment,

Working at UW Sports Ministry made me realize how much God loves me and because of that I then was able to love children more than I ever have before.

Being an RA at Indiana Wesleyan University allowed me to learn how to work with others and know how to handle difficult situations.

Tearing my ACL in high school lead me to be apart of my church’s middle school ministry and then allowed me to get my identity off of sports and more on Christ.

My parents living in 2 different states due to my grandparents being ill and my mother needing to care for them. They were not separated, but seeing the difficulty of death and separation has shaped me.

Being an RA and having to work with students who were depressed, suicidal, and had eating disorders was a “negative” experience, but has given me a lot of compassion for people going through those situations.
