We want to make an important announcement regarding a crucial change. It’s been a true joy to be able to serve you through the Guarding the Heart blog (GTH) on shyjumathew.com all these years.
It’s a sorrowful yet joyful process. Sorrow because we will be moving GTH from shyjumathew.com, where it all began, and it also means losing about 9000+ back links to our site and tens of thousands of other shares from social media. From 2009, we’ve seen about 1,564,366 views and thankful to God for letting us reach these all these people.
Now for the better story, with more clarity to where we are headed, it is also needed that we keep it simple so that we do not confuse people.
We now have about five translations of our website and another dozen sub-websites. We are now in the process of trying to reduce the clutter and merge as many sites together to bring more clarity and better service to you.
So to keep it short:
– GTH moves from shyjumathew.com/blog to revivenations.org/blog
– Oasis Podcasts will now be a part of Guarding the Heart blog.
– Parenting Category will no more exist on GTH. It merges with Revive Kids Blog that we will be working more on.
– Revive Nations News is merged now to GTH news category.

A special thanks to our precious team which has been working very hard behind the scenes to make sure everything goes on without any interruptions. I generally avoid mentioning a single person because all of them work together as a team. However, in this case I want to mention our media department; Robin, Athens and Elina for their faithful investment and many sleepless nights in making sure the design and the posts are intact.
Having to do all this from a scratch, we’ve never had the opportunity for someone to guide us. We’ve had to learn it the hard way, but it’s all worth the trouble knowing that someone out there is being encouraged and blessed. This is why every comment you make on our posts is a valued feedback of what God is doing in your heart through these posts.
GTH Logo: You may have also noticed already, Guarding the Heart has a cute new heart logo. We had to design something for ourselves as we did not have the rights over the other clip art we used before.
RN branding: As we mentioned on our social networks and to our partners, we are pleased with our newly revealed logo for Revive Nations. Please continue to pray for us that the Lord’s mercy and grace will lead us. If you have not partnered with us yet, take a minute to do so here (free).
Support our online ministry: Each time you share a link from our site you are helping us reach more people. I encourage you to continue to do so. If the Lord leads you to support us financially, please visit here.
You can also use these images to introduce our ministry to your friends on your favourite social media or on your blog. If you happened to link us to your blog, please let us know about it too.
Coming soon
We have lined up some powerful posts in the weeks to come! I can’t wait to send them to you soon. God bless you and thank you for praying for us.
Have a word of encouragement to them team? Have a brilliant idea? Have a question? Leave them all below in the comments. Our team will make sure we respond to all your questions.
Love,
Shyju
