Guarding the Good Deposit
Hosted by Matthew D. Andersen · EN
In 2 Timothy 1:14, Paul charged Timothy to “guard the good deposit" — the teaching and traditions passed down from Christ through His apostles. Guarding the Good Deposit podcast is all about what that means for us today. Rooted in the patterns of Acts and the Epistles, we're exploring the foundations of our faith and discovering how it can re-shape our life and ministry in the 21st century.
As the influence of Christendom fades, we want to be faithful to Paul's charge - contending for the faith, guarding the good deposit, and holding fast to the sound teaching given to us by the first followers of Jesus. Join us as we imagine how church families today can be renewed by fully returning to The Way of Christ and His Apostles.

Episode 1 - Acts: Why Acts? All that Jesus Continued to Do and Teach.
3w ago00:48:57Tap to summarizeWe'd love to hear from you! In this opening episode, Matt and Scott explore why the book of Acts matters and how Luke presents it as the continuation of all that Jesus continued to do and teach. By examining Luke–Acts as a unified, catechetical work, we begin by focusing on the author’s intent to help us uncover the apostolic pattern that was intentionally passed down through the apostles. This conversation sets the foundation for the entire series, inviting us to move beyond secondary traditions and faithfully guard the good deposit entrusted to the church from the very beginning.Support the showLinks to our stuff: https://linktr.ee/gooddepositWebsite: www.guardingthegooddeposit.comSupport us: www.buymeacoffee.com/gooddepositFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/guardingthegooddepositInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/guardingthegooddeposit/Email: hello@guardingthegooddeposit.comMatt's Substack: www.patternsandparadigms.comScott's Substack: www.afterchristendom.com

May 400:01:58Tap to summarizeWe'd love to hear from you! Welcome to Guarding the Good Deposit — a podcast about contending for the faith in a time when Christendom is fading.In 2 Timothy 1:14, Paul urges Timothy to “Guard the good deposit.” This wasn’t just advice for a young leader in the first century. It’s a charge for the church in every generation — including ours.So the question is… what exactly is that deposit? Is it just a set of beliefs or a doctrinal position? Or does it refer to the teaching, the patterns, the apostolic tradition, and the way of life that came from Christ and was passed down through His apostles?In our quickly changing world today, this question matters now more than ever.Guarding the Good Deposit is a podcast rooted in the patterns of Acts and the Epistles. We’re exploring how the early church was established, how the gospel expanded, and how those biblical patterns can still shape our lives and church families today.I’m Matt Andersen.
