Your Primary was ‘The Beaver’, with your Secondary coming in as ‘The Retriever’, and here are the descriptions of your Personalities, and how they can be used for God
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
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
[E]xperience
I accepted Christ as my Savior 17 years ago. When I went through some difficult times in my life, I let my relationship with Christ suffer. I rededicated my life 3 years ago and now I have a burning desire to serve Christ by helping others avoid the mistakes I made that led me away from Christ.
New Pointe Community Church Dover, Ohio- 2002-2007 Children’s ministry
Faith Family Church Canton, Ohio – 2007-2011 I volunteered in the Bookstore; I’ve attended again since 2016 and this year joined our Welcome Team to welcome visitors, answer their questions and help get them plugged in to the Church.
Having my children. They have made me want to be a better person, to be an example for them to follow.
Being a gymnast. It taught me discipline, sacrifice and the value of hard work.
My step Dad and his entire family took me in as their own and never treated me as if I was anything less than family. I felt loved and accepted and I’ve never forgotten that. They didn’t have to do that but they did it any way.
Growing up in a home with alcoholic parents
Divorce (both my parents and my own)
Abusive relationships
