在基督教历史中，使徒时代（英语：Apostolic Age），又称使徒时期，传统上指12使徒在耶稣复活显现，接受大使命，开始向外传教之后，一直到最后一个使徒死亡的这段时期，时间约从西元33年一直到约100年之间。这是基督教会发展的最初期阶段，12使徒由耶路撒冷教会出发，在小亚细亚创建了安提阿教会，之后向整个地中海世界传播基督教义。许多基督教会的传统都被追溯到这个时期，但是这个时期存留的文献数据不多，主要集中在《使徒行传》，但使徒行传中的部份记载被考证及质疑可能有问题，使得这段时期的真实历史仍然存在许多争议。

The Apostolic Age of the history of Christianity is traditionally the period of the Twelve Apostles, dating from the Great Commission of the Apostles by the resurrected Jesus in Jerusalem c. 33 until the death of the last Apostle, believed to be John the Apostle in Anatolia c. 100. Traditionally, the Apostles are believed to have dispersed from Jerusalem, founding the Apostolic Sees. It holds special significance in Christian tradition as the age of the direct apostles of Jesus Christ. The major primary source for the "Apostolic Age" is the Acts of the Apostles, but its historical accuracy is questioned by some.
