Your Primary was ‘The Otter’, with your Secondary coming in as ‘The Lion’, and here are the descriptions of your Personalities, and how they can be used for God

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

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

[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

I was addicted to drugs early on in life and got my girlfriend pregnant at the age of 30. I was not walking with the Lord and had no intention on having children or being a husband. God had different plans for me at the time and blessed me with 2 unplanned children and a marriage that ended after 7 years from being spiritual immature. Later I had moved to the West coast got a divorce in 2011 as I started to attend several church’s and got baptized in 2016. It took a lot of tragedy and heartache for me to finally see the Light of Christ.

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

Shepard of the Hills West Los Angeles- set up of church floor- audio video

Metro Calvary- Santa Monica Ca- Serving Homeless through Food Pantry

Homeless Ministry- Distributing toiletries and the Word of God- Venice Beach Outreach

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

In times of despair or hopelessness to shine and serve the Word of God to others. Deflect your own problems to help someone.

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:

Addicted to drugs and alcohol

3 failed relationships based on anger and control issues

Troubles in holding long term jobs
