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

Raised in church saved in 4th grade have been in church my whole life.

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

Copan United Methodist church – 10 years children’s director, Sunday school teacher, bible school teacher

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

an amazing spirit filled Sunday school teacher at tuxedo assembly

Baptism of the Holy Spirit as an adult

Becoming a member of Spirit church in Bartlesville

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:

My father was an alcoholic and I grew up in a troubled home. I have gone thru a long healing process and feel compassion for others going thru this.

Went thru a lot of negative experiences spiritual and emotionally at the Methodist church, but I am stronger and firmer in my foundation than ever.

My mother has delusion disorder, that was and is difficult. but my compassion has grown and I see things in a different light because of it.
