Pastor Rick Brooks was born in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. He grew up not attending church. He graduated from North Forsyth Senior High School, where he lettered in several varsity sports. After high school, Rick moved to Cleveland Tennessee, where he attended Lee College. Later, he earned degrees from Logos University and several other biblical colleges. Pastor Rick Brooks is one of the dynamic and enthusiastic pastors in the church today. He first accepted Christ as his Lord and Savior at the tender age of sixteen, and committed his life to full-time Christian service at the age of twenty two. Since that time, Rick has served as an evangelist, youth director, assistant pastor, worship leader and senior pastor. Pastor Rick is the founding pastor of the Free Church and serves in this role today. He met his wife, Penny, in Winston-Salem in 1982, and they were married in that same year. After just two years of marriage, God began to deal with them about going to the Washington D.C. area to help build a church. Fourteen years later, the Lord called Rick and Penny to go again and this time to go and help revive a struggling church in Greensboro, North Carolina of 20 people. In just 9 short years the church grew in number and became home to nearly 100 precious families, with two worship services on Sunday mornings at 8:30 and 10:30 a.m. . After much prayer, fasting and hearing the call of God, Pastor Rick resigned his church in June 2007 and began a new work in the western Greensboro area called, Free Church International.
