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

I became a Christian at 9. But my desire to follow Christ in Baptism at 30 was a game changer! God had been working on me for 12 years. I have seen God’s hand in my life…with the man He brought into my life, the children I never thought I would have, through my marriage plummeting and God healing it, through my child choosing a way of life contrary to what I thought it should be and how I have seen God’s hand in her…He is always faithful and just!

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

Cambrian Heights Bapatist Calgary, Alberta
Volunteer Educatiinal Minister
Woman’s Bible Study leader

FBC Katy, Texas
Children’s Minister, Awana’s leader and VBS director…as well as Crafts director

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

A fourth grade teacher that showed God’s love toward us every day

Woman leaders in my life at home and church that led so willingly…giving up time and home.

My life with my mom and dad…such godly parents!

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:

A teacher I had, and a few I worked with that did not treat children with respect of being kids…though kids tried to do right

A 4 year hiccup in our marriage…that by God’s grace healed to so much more.

My sister’s bout with multiple illnesses…epilepsy, Diabetis, and two types of cancers.

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. I would do chaplaincy work in our hospitals

4. I wouldn’t make sure every child in our schools didn’t have worry about what they were going to eat at school.

5. I would have a woman’s art/craft day where we would share scripture and testimonies
