“A passion for Christ, a heart for service, and a love for those who are needy – this describes my friend, Lyla Swafford, to a tee. ...I'm convinced Lyla’s story will inspire the same passion, love, and service toward others in you, too!” – Joni Eareckson Tada, Joni and Friends International Disability Center --

Lyla Swafford was born with Cerebral Palsy and a strong determination not to allow it to limit her. While Lyla has accomplished much through hard work, some goals have eluded her for years.

Through it all, her wit and humor have been an encouragement to many. As you read this book, It Takes More than Legs To Stand, you will see how you can enjoy an incredible life of delight and purpose even when health or other things you have relied on fail you.
