[H]eart

1. I love to share my story when I think it might help others see what the Lord can do for them. I love seeing lives transformed and changed by God’s Power.

2. I love my real estate career. It is an opportunity to help others meet a fundamental need of housing or selling their current house while sharing my faith along the way. My business verse is Isaiah 32:18, and I truly want my clients to have a peaceful, secure and restful dwelling place. I am passionate about my business and how the Lord is using me through the agent role.

3. I love spending time with “positive” family and friends that help rejuvenate me.

Variety

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

Had been a church member since I was 6 years old, but at age 21 realized I had only a head knowledge of the Lord and no personal relationship with Him. I accepted Christ as Savior and Lord in 1987 and was baptized at Gilmer St. Baptist Church (Grace BC now).

Sunday School Teacher / Gilmer Street BC and Grace BC in Cartersville for 20+ years from 3-5 grade girls/ Middle and High School co-ed classes / College and Careers class

Led the Women’s Ministry at Grace Baptist Church as well as numerous Bible Studies and Retreats. Led in-home Bible Study for women for years

VBS Director at Gilmer Street/Grace for at least 8-10 years

A chance encounter with Craig in 2016 drastically changed my life. He is a wonderful friend and companion, and I am so thankful God brought him into my life.

I was blessed to have Doug Harris as my pastor for many years. My relationship with Doug and Gayle was instrumental in my walk with the Lord and parenting.

I was a part of a Sunday School class and support group from Grace Baptist that has meant the world to me. We “did life together” for decades, and I am grateful to have experienced the love and encouragement this group provided in my life (and still does).

A planned suicide attempt that ended in hospitalization in 2016 completely changed my life. In that hospital, I had an encounter with Jesus, and I have never looked back. I was lifted from my depression, and my life has never been the same.
