[H]eart

Three things I love to do that bring joy and fulfillment in my life:

1. Help others with their issues and provide the support and knowledge needed for change and to overcome obstacles.

2. Work with my hands doing projects outside in the yard. Or, just being outside in nature feeds my soul and relaxes me. It’s where I am very happy.

3. Hanging out with loved ones and just relaxing on the weekends. No plans and nothing really to do but rest.

Who I love to work with most, and the age or type of people:

I seem to work well with all ages, but have found that in my career that I enjoy working at the high school level the most.

Church issues, ministries, or possible needs that excite or concern me the most:

I don’t know the bible well and therefore I would struggle with being the “expert” and leading an area that would require me to understand it better in order to answer questions.

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

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
