Hardships, injustice, and abuse can leave us crippled, or they can leave us more determined than ever to thrive.

Ira Combs, Jr. grew up in the poverty-stricken city of Westland, Michigan. Between racial injustice, a pervasive drug culture, and a complex relationship with an abusive father, Ira had plenty of excuses to become trapped and bitter.

He chose a different path.

The founder and pastor of Greater Bible Way Temple Church in Jackson, Michigan, Bishop Combs has spent his life changing the face of faith-based community service, mental health, state politics, and national policies.

From suffering injustices as a child, to becoming a sought-after counselor to politicians and presidents, the journey of Bishop Ira Combs is an inspiring story of resilience and success.
