Greater Bible Way Temple’s Associate Pastors serve under the authority of Jesus Christ and leadership of Senior Pastor, Bishop Ira Combs Jr. They are godly men and women who are passionate about Jesus Christ and serving and uplifting His people.

Associate Pastor Gregory Crump
Associate Pastor (A.P.) Gregory Crump is a licensed Elder with the Pentecostal Assemblies of the World, Inc., and has been a faithful and committed servant at the Greater Bible Way Temple (GBWT) for 25 years. His willingness to help and be involved led him to the usher ministry where he ultimately became the Head Usher and for 2 years was the Head Usher for the Northern District Council Young People’s Union (NDCYPU). During this time with the NDCYPU he felt a call to the ministry and met his precious wife Kimberly.

He has served as Vice Chairman of the GBWT Youth Department where he had a passion to see the youth excel spiritually and academically. To further develop youth, he taught weekly for the Young Apostolic Students for Christ (YASC) campus ministry held at the University of Michigan. He then served as a Trustee assisting with the financial matters of the church and teaching Stewardship classes to the congregation. He continues to teach Christian Education classes in order to help the people of God grow and develop in their relationship with Jesus Christ. A.P. Crump also has a heart for the sick and shut-in. To fulfill this call he has worked with the GBWT Chaplain Ministry to minister to residents in assisted living facilities and nursing homes throughout Michigan including Brighton, Novi, Ypsilanti, Jackson and Spring Arbor. In addition, he conducts services for the Prison Ministry. Finally, A.P. Crump believes that the foundation of his relationship with Jesus Christ is prayer, so he is actively involved in the Prayer Ministry.
