Gene Simco

Gene Simco is a former Martial Arts Instructor and Author best known for writing Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, The Master Text - the largest BJJ book written to date. A series of events led him to peruse a life dedicated to Christ. Prior to his work in the martial arts industry, Gene had been a musician, making music a natural vehicle for him to spread the Gospel message through the worship ministry - but this would lead to an even deeper relationship with Christ into full time ministry. Gene now serves as Lead Pastor at C3 Church in Naples Florida where the vision is to feed the community in both Word and deed. He also continues his work as an author, now writing about Jesus.
