Recent Reviews of Elizabeth Chalker's God inspired book: 
PHYLLIS HARDIN writes: "All through the ages philosophers and theologians have tried to understand the role of suffering in our world. Especially troublesome is the occurrence of undeserved suffering expressed in the thought, “Why do bad things happen to good people?”

In her book, Hanging On by the Scratch Marks My Nails Left Behind: Raw Faith, Elizabeth Chalker bypasses any philosophical discussion of suffering and instead lays bare her very personal and intimate experiences of unimaginable suffering. She opens a window through which the reader can catch a glimpse of what it is like to cling to God with raw, tenacious faith when all else is gone and to find that He is enough.

This book will bless you and inspire you on your own spiritual journey. Try it!"

GABRIEL CAMERON: "Elizabeth shares her tragic yet beautifully inspiring life story thus far, of how she went from a highly successful woman who seemingly had it all, to being bedridden with a disease (Lyme) that most doctors don't even take seriously. Part of what makes her story so inspiring is the fact that even through all her pain and strife, her soul is still set on inspiring others. Elizabeth's hope and perseverance are derived from her unwavering christian faith; through it all her faith is what carries her onward. 


As a reader, what makes her story more compelling personally is that she is able to communicate her faith in a way that is universal, thus transcending religion and delivering her messages and lessons from a place of higher awareness. As a highly spiritual but non-religious person, I find that the writings in this book are truly transcendent lessons in getting closer to God; regardless of what name(s) you choose to call your God(s) by. All in all, Elizabeth pushes aside the pain and gets to the Heart of Life with 'Hanging On'."

LEIGH WILLIAMS: "Elizabeth, I am not yet totally finished with your book but I am close.  I wanted to tell you how touched I am by your courage. You put so much of your deeply personal issues out there for everyone else to see and I think that is very admirable. I think the title RAW FAITH is exactly what you are showing to us.
I have already cried quite a few times because your writing takes me through my own personal connection with God. I share the Lyme with you and I would not wish it on anyone. Sometimes the medical system fails us and ignores us, and it is them that you need to hang on by your fingernails.

Jesus is with you Elizabeth and I know he will not let you suffer forever. Thank you for writing such a beautiful and honest book and sharing such a deep part of yourself with all of us.
For anyone who feels like they are losing hope, being ignored, feeling abandoned or alone, read this book. You will discover that courage and love is right at your fingertips. Love will lead the way, and please let there be a cure for Lyme disease. Bless you."

So far I can say that while being in the deepest pit-Elizabeth still honors God with her gift of encouragement to others and retains her complete trust in GOD. Order a copy today and help yourself go deeper into your relationship with God while also helping Elizabeth. Blessings to you."

NORMAN SCHLAACK: "I have a hard time believing that I could go through what Elizabeth is going through. She is courageous beyond words, and yet her faith keeps her going even though she does question it at times. How could you not? Even with the hell she is living every day, she has committed herself to her faith. I admire her for that. You will too after reading this motivating book. You will see things differently. It will make you review your life and will make you realize what is important. It will help you realize what you have today is a gift, and why they call it the present."
