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

Heard the Gospel preached at a Billy Graham crusade and was drawn by the Spirit to go forward and make the decision to trust in Jesus as Savior of my life.

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

Ridgecrest Baptist Church/Durham, NC/Ladies’ Connect Group Teacher/Leader/12 years as a teacher (26 years church member)

My own Speaking Ministry at various churches’ women’s events.

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

Growing up with loving and nurturing parents.

Marrying a man who has a strong devotion to Jesus.

Being a mother and grandmother

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:

Growing up in a church that didn’t teach the Gospel – I know how important it is.

Not having a Christian mentor – everyone needs someone to come alongside them.

My husband and I have had many medical issues but have given both of us a deeper faith and we are able to empathize with others going through similar situations.
