[H]eart

Three things I love to do that bring joy and fulfillment in my life:

1. Work to better myself, my industry, faith, and marriage.

2. Learning and sharing my knowledge with others.

3. Knowing I can make a difference to someone.

Who I love to work with most, and the age or type of people:

I enjoy learning from elderly Christians. The amount of faith and life’s lessons is immeasurable as one by one they pass away and the opportunities are lost for the next generation to learn.
The young to remember the joys of being careless and laughing at the simplest of things.
The “professionals” of many fields. Religious, relationships, economics, social, cultures, Christian science, medical, geology, engineering, etc.

Church issues, ministries, or possible needs that excite or concern me the most:

Church security, children’s ministries, community outreaches, faith based educational institutions, discipleship of believers, families, and leaders in the body. Eliminating the financial burdens of families.

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

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

Seeing the love of a family/home outside of my own growing up by a complete stranger who inquired about me from a school principal and who’s family became family when she reached out to help, Jan Noel.

Academic Pentathlon taught me the joy of knowledge and High School Football taught me to take care of my body, relieve stresskept me focused on something other than life at home.
