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 was baptized when I was 16, but after some years I walked away from the lord because of church hurt. Eventually my wife and I found TLC and we decided to recommit.

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

TLC – Equipment team – 1 year

TLC – Facilities Ministry – 1 year

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

Discipleship with Pastor Maurice has had a huge impact on who I am today.

Premarital counselling with Pastor’s Paul and Andrea impacted on how I thought of marriage and my approach to it.

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:

I was wrongfully accused of a crime and spent 7 days in jail. Even though the charges were dismissed I still have sympathy for those who are in the prison system.
