After completing the SYMBIS assessment individually, Jake and I were excited to review our results with Doug and Sissy Pitcher.
Because we have worked with them in their ministry before, we already knew how committed they are to giving Godly wisdom and advice. After about 8 weeks of meeting with them regularly, my husband and I were blown away with the changes that we were starting to see in our marriage. SYMBIS opened our eyes to be able to understand each other in ways we have never even thought of before.
We are able to know what brings growth to our marriage in conversations about communication, money, intimacy, etc. This process really opened up our eyes to see what God intended in a marriage, and the Pitchers were able to communicate this to us, even using scripture as a reference.
Aside from the spiritual knowledge that Doug and Sissy brought, let me also mention how real these two people are. They are some of the easiest people to talk to. My husband and I felt no fear of judgment during our meetings, and we even had moments of laughter that brought an easy peace to the heavy conversations.
I would encourage every couple to go through the SYMBIS process to help you understand your spouse better. It's not too late to take this assessment! We are constantly learning about each other, and will continue to daily. The Pitcher Ministries is one of my favorite things about our engagement/marriage journey!
