FBC Melbourne has a goal called “Launch 10x”. Our vision is to plant 10 churches, send out 100 missionaries, train 1,000 leaders, and make 10,000 disciples in the next 10 years. The purpose of the Mission Control podcast is to share stories from within the FBC Melbourne faith community of people who are living out this vision. Regardless of who you are, we all have a role to play. We are all involved in God’s story. We pray that the stories shared through Mission Control will encourage you to see how God is calling you to be used by Him!
