“Most of the time my wife just looks at me and says, ‘We really made that much?’”
Gregg was teaching part-time out of a church with just 7 students and charging only $79/month. As a full-time preacher, he felt called to build his martial arts ministry—but lacked the structure, strategy, and support to grow.
“I wanted to grow, but I didn’t want to sacrifice the mission. 7FD never once told me to stop talking about Jesus. That mattered.”

✅ Coaching + Accountability: Live weekly calls and team support kept him moving forward

“I’ve gone from ‘someday I’d love a full-time school’ to setting a two-year countdown for my own building.”

What Surprised Him Most?
“I didn’t realize how much I could actually do. I thought I didn’t have time—but with the right systems, it became possible.”
Even while juggling two jobs, Gregg stayed coachable and implemented fast.
“I’m not the most tech-savvy guy, but the team had so much patience. I can’t thank them enough.”
