[P]ersonality

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

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I am a true problem-solver. I have the gift of performing admin duties beyond expectation, and I believe it is to better the kingdom by aiding in all the “background” things. I believe that the duties I perform help make the experience for outsiders more welcoming and provides them a great environment to make a life changing decision!

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I believe I have this gift from being raised in a family who has always given to those in need. I feel strongly that I am to help others around me more than I help myself.

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
My role is directly related to serving. I love making things happen and making them the best they can be. I know I have this gift because it is hard for me to say the word “no”. I love pleasing those around me whatever it takes!

[H]eart

1. I love creativity. I love designing things, creating things, and making things better. This comes to life in my work such as graphics, video, audio etc.

2. I love music. I have always had a passion for music. From singing to dancing, music is a “must have” in my life.

3. I love sports and being active. I am a true kid at heart and I give my all when playing any type of sport.

I love working with a wide variety of people. I can relate to people of all types, so I love surrounding myself with people in all walks of life.

I think the thing that excites me most is that while there is always a huge need for reaching lost people in our community, we are making it happen!

[E]xperience

I was saved at a youth camp, after a wonderful week of services and a time of prayer/confession with a group of my guys. In that time is when I discovered that I needed to give everything to Christ and live for him!

Cartersville First Baptist Church
Cartersville, GA
Tech/Media Director
2013-Present

Meeting my wife and growing closer to her, which in turn grew me closer to God.

Coming from school and getting on the team here at CFBC.

Being in the close knit group of Godly friends all through school.

Seeing so many of my friends from school drop off after high school and just continuing to go down the wrong paths.

My parents being divorced since I was a baby has shown me many trials in my lifetime. However, at the same time it has taught me a lot about how to be a leader in my future family.

When I was 15, I realized that Christ was not in my life and I was heading straight for Hell. I had a lot of pain in my heart and mind because I was not saved. A friend of mine helped me realize that I needed Jesus in my life and I asked Christ to forgive me for my sins and save me.

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I do enjoy encouraging others! I want others to hear the gospel and know the love and grace of God through the blood of Jesus. I am no better than anyone else and no one’s sins are greater than my own. I can relate to the hurt of others because of my own life and experiences. For me, helping another person to feel better (a word, a card, a smile, a prayer) is sharing the love of Jesus.

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I enjoy serving and being in the background, not the spokesperson outfront. I enjoy people but not crowds. Sharing the message of Christ is important to me and I am more effective serving and helping those with more outgoing personalities than I have myself. If I am not recognized by man for my service, I am okay with that. I have no desire to be ‘known’ or in the spotlight, teach, or be a public speaker.

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
This one surprised me! I don’t consider myself gifted at all in evangelism. I proclaim the gospel and what God has done in my life because without Him, I wouldn’t be here. I think I share the gospel as encouragement.

[H]eart

1. Reading and writing cards/letters – encouraging

2. Praying and journaling

3. Being with my family and being outside. I love my dog! I like to clean, too. Oh, and I exercised everyday before I broke my tailbone!

I enjoy working with elderly people and with people that need a friend, need encouraging (troubled)

I want to know more about the jail ministry. We have a good number of people in our church that have family members with addiction issues (substance abuse) etc. and I would like to see that addressed more in a public way. Often the one suffering has so much guilt and shame that they don\’t feel accepted and the family needs support but they, too, feel guilty and ashamed and judged so they suffer in silence.

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

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 was saved at age 24 at Trinity Baptist Church. I did not always live ‘right’ and I wandered. God was with me through cancer and many years of my ongoing battle with Crohn\’s. However, it wasn’t until a few years back I really began a relationship with Jesus. It was cold, rainy night and I was in the middle of a bad neighborhood looking for Tori. I had not seen/heard from her in several days. I was scared and exhausted. I cried out to my Savior and He was right there with me! It was then that I began to understand the truth of the gospel and that HE is God of all things; in control of all things; loves me unconditionally and truly never leaves me. He is everything and I am nothing apart from Him. Nothing that I ‘have’ is mine – everything, including myself, belongs to Him.

Ladies Ministry – past

Being raised by my grandparents – we were very poor but they raised me with love and morals. I am forever grateful for the life they gave me when my 16 year old momma could not take care of me.

Having Cancer and living with Crohns Disease. Crohn\’s Disease is humbling because it is all about going to the bathroom! Seriously, it taught me to see people as equal – or be embarrassed about going to the bathroom often … after all, everyone does it. 🙂 Cliche as it sounds, Cancer helped me to see that it is not about what you look like, it is about what kind of person you are. The body fails but the spirit lives on.

Meeting a man that loves God more than me. It took years for God to soften my heart to love and trust after my divorce. I was fiercely independent. Meeting someone that actually loves me (better) because he loves God most is an amazing life lesson!

3. Let those tormented by addiction, hurt by life, or feel (less than) know that they ARE LOVED! And to let their families know that it is not their fault and not to be ashamed.

4. Go on a mission trip (I am afraid to fly and I have anxiety about leaving home for too long)
