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

[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

I was raised in church, but never really fit in with church. I never really felt like I belonged and it seemed like a social gathering to me. Church was just a place that people got together because they were supposed to. So I never really cared about going to church. Then I met Ben and he kept urging me to go with him to the Bridge. It wasn’t until he started watching this movie called “American Gospel: Christ Alone” that I realized what he had been trying to tell me for the last two years. It opened my eyes to the fact that there was so much that I didn’t know about the gospel that I DIDN’T KNOW! Now I am so hungry to know more about the gospel and the Bible. I am also super excited about how real the Bridge is.

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

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

My mom was able to overcome her addiction to alcohol.

My dad is a very intelligent man and used scripture to help raise me. He also did a wonderful job in trying to get me to see the bigger picture to any problems I may have been going through.

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:

I had an alcoholic for a mom and it totally turned my family world upside down. I had to help raise my little brother at a young age which fueled my rebellion in my college years.

I became a single mom at the age of 21. I was still very selfish and wanted to enjoy things that others my age were getting to do.

My first marriage was to an emotionally abusive man. I stayed married to him because of the little girl we had together and his daughter who I fell in love with. We are now going through a difficult investigation into the molestation of my daughter by him.

Wrapping It Up

The Challenge: Based upon your S.H.A.P.E. 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 use my voice musically and verbally to reach others.

4. To make a huge impact on the way abortion is viewed/performed in this country. I can’t stand the thought of killing innocent babies.

5. To reach out to young women to help them realize that they don’t need the arms of a man to help them feel whole. That the Lord is what they need and through patience, prayer, and growth and most importantly loving themselves the way God loves us will lead to much happier and healthier lives.
