FOUNDERSYDNEY MATONE
I’m a follower of Jesus Christ with a deep love for hearing and telling the stories of what He has done in people’s lives.
I’ve always been fascinated by testimonies. Not simply because they celebrate the person but because they reveal the faithfulness of God. Every transformed life is another piece of evidence that the gospel is true and that Jesus is still changing lives today.
That conviction is what inspired The Disciple Files.
As the host, I approach each conversation with the heart of a both a disciple and an investigator. Asking thoughtful questions, listening carefully and uncovering the moments where God’s grace is unmistakably at work. Each episode explores the stories of ordinary people whose lives have been changes by an extraordinary Savior.
My prayer is that these conversations strengthen believers, encourage those who are struggling, and invite anyone who is curious about Christianity to explore the evidence themselves. Above all, I hope every episode points beyond the guest and back to Jesus Christ, whose work is the true story worth telling.
Thank you for being here. I pray these conversations encourage you to know Christ more deeply and to see His faithfulness more clearly.
