Meet Rick

Rick Smith knows what it’s like to hit rock bottom. That’s why he started Rock Bottom Outreach. Rick also knows how it feels to appear to be on top of the world. He was a successful coach, winning two state championships, taught Sunday School, mentored youth, and was a church leader, missionary and staff member.

But what the world didn’t know was Rick was addicted to prescription drugs for ten years. The cost was great - his marriage, his career, and almost the lives of his children and himself.

That was Rick’s rock bottom. But it also became the starting point for his climb to a renewed relationship with God. Rick has been there – to the point where the only places left to go are out or up. Through Rock Bottom Outreach, he is helping those who have hit rock bottom find their way up.
