The Road to Jubilee: From Medical Mystery to the Joy in Between Melissa Keaster

She believes in God's power to heal-but what if her miracle never comes?




At 27, Melissa Keaster's life with her loving husband and two-year-old son seems divinely blessed. But after their daughter is born, several episodes of anaphylaxis leave her wondering if she will even live to raise her kids. Melissa begins to have severe allergic reactions to everything-food, fragrances, even the cold.




The doctors are mystified as to the cause of her illness, and she becomes a shut-in to protect herself against the world her body rejects. As the disease steals one blessing after another, Melissa faces a choice: shake a fist at the heavens, or open her hands to everything God has for her-no matter how difficult or dangerous it may be. Along the road, she discovers a freedom she never could have anticipated and the joy to endure, whether or not the miracle comes.




Evocative and gripping, The Road to Jubilee will take you on an unforgettable journey through suffering, loss, and redemption.
