Ted's testimony-
From the Grateful Dead
To
Gratefully
Alive!
Ted Alexander was born and raised in central Pennsylvania. His dad, brother, and his priest were all drunks. At the age of 12 years, Ted was already on acid, marijuana, pills, chemicals, and alcohol. By 14 years, he was following the Grateful Dead and other hippy bands across the country. He stole, and sold drugs and tie dyed T-shirts to support his lifestyle. His older brother Bob got saved at work one night. Bob was also messed up on dope and booze before his conversion. When he got saved he began to witness to Ted, as well as the other family members. Ted was saved in July of 1987, and surrendered to preach in March of 1994. Since then Ted has preached over 3,200 messages, and has seen over 1,500 people come to Christ. He has preached several meetings with salvations numbering over 20 people in one week. He has preached on the streets, under tents, at camps, schools, jails, and on foreign fields. Ted holds 2 degrees and is in pursuit of a third.
Having once lived for the
Grateful Dead,
Ted is happy to be alive in Christ.
