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

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 going to a christian school and at chapel the preacher was teaching how no one is good enough and that you had to repent from your sins. I put it off for a week and had nightmares of “end times” and me not making it to heaven. I then broke down at the next chapel time and gave my life to the Lord. I think I was 11

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

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

Preacher challenged me to prove that eternal security wasn’t taught in the Bible by using verses not what others had told me. After a month of reading and studying and searching I found out that he was right that we are eternally secure in HIM and it taught me to look up and study on everything that I stood for and was willing to defend.

Sara and the girls give me another purpose to be in the world other than serving Christ

a friend of mine talked me into co teaching a middle school bible study.

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:

My parents divorce

My divorce

My brother going through drug problems, stealing, jail time
