RECALIBRATE #1 - ”The Apostles’ Teaching” (Selected Scriptures)

What made the early church so effective? As we begin 2026, we're taking time to examine the biblical foundations of a healthy church—and it starts with what they devoted themselves to first. In Acts 2:42, Luke tells us the first believers "devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching." But what exactly was that teaching? Why did it carry such weight? And what does commitment to it actually look like in practice today? In this opening message of our Recalibrate series, Pastor Kofi unpacks why the apostles' teaching wasn't just good information. For the early church, it was a matter of spiritual life and death. Drawing from the sermons recorded throughout Acts, we discover a pattern of teaching that was comprehensive, consistent, and centered on Christ. Whether you've been following Jesus for decades or you're just exploring the faith, this message will challenge you to examine your own relationship to the preaching and teaching of the Word. In this sermon: — Who the apostles were and why their authority matters — What the apostles actually taught (with examples from Acts) — Why we still need this teaching today — Practical implications for churches that want to be Word-centered Redeemer Bible Fellowship is a Reformed and baptistic in Southern Oregon committed to the faithful exposition of Scripture.
