#1 Gift, Giving (81%)

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I know that what I have is from the Lord. For 25 years I have faithfully tithed and given offerings above and not ever do I think what I could have done with that $. I also enjoy giving of my time serving. Oh look – that’s next.

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 had always known about Christ having grown up in church. When Greg accepted Christ I saw a change in him that was positive. I chose to trust Christ with my life – my future and was baptized. It wasn’t until ~2 years later that I fully understood Christ’s sacrifice for my sin. It was then I felt saved and a full follower of Christ.

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

PVBC – Student Ministry (last 3 years), Coffee/Guest Services (2 years), Event planning (3 years)

Cornerstone Community Church – AWANA, children’s church, leading ladies studies (4 years we were there)

Church on Rush Creek – Children’s Ministry – 4th grade girls (3 years)

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

Moving away from family and moving in general – learned who I was away from them

Adopting children – inviting them into my life and home

Having great work success from early years to present

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:

Work situations – feeling like I failed at teaching, struggling to find work when we moved to new cities,

Infertility
