The Theikos Exchange is a worship band made up of guys from all across Alabama. Our main goal as a band is to always lead people to Christ through songs of praise and worship. We try our best to exemplify Christ in all that we do and show that, in Him, true joy and happiness are found. This is why we are called The Theikos Exchange. Theikos is a Greek word meaning “divine,” and when paired with exchange, it talks about the exchange between Christ and us when we accept Him as our savior.
