The Undesirable: They Wanted His Blood, Not His Testimony

By Muriel Goosby-Chambers

They wanted his blood. Not his testimony.

In a world divided between the Desirable and the Undesirable, nineteen-year-old Malachi has spent his life on the wrong side of society's judgment. Along with nine other young people, he faces a deadly disease and a future that appears already decided.

Then an encounter at the water changes everything.

Ten are healed. Nine run toward the world that once rejected them. One turns back.

When the nine discover that their blood possesses extraordinary healing power, they become celebrities-celebrated, honored, and eventually treated as humanity's saviors. But Malachi has discovered something greater. His healing was more than physical. He encountered Jesus Christ, and while the world desperately wants what is in his veins, Malachi is determined to tell them about the One who changed his heart.

As fame becomes worship and healing becomes idolatry, humanity faces a choice with consequences reaching far beyond this life.

The Undesirable is a Christian speculative fiction story about rejection, privilege, idolatry, salvation, and the power of a testimony. Inspired by biblical accounts including the ten lepers, the rich man and Lazarus, and Christ's compassion for those society cast aside, it asks one haunting question:

If Jesus is willing to reach the undesirable, why are we not?
