    Choosing Alignment Over Resolutions in the New Year

    A new year doesn’t require a new you — it requires a clearer direction. In this foundational episode of Legacy Life with the Lacefields, Chad and Megan share the word God placed on their hearts for 2026: Advance. Not rushed growth. Not burnout-driven hustle. But forward movement rooted in faith, alignment, and intention. This episode is an invitation to pause, reflect, and reframe how you approach the year ahead. Instead of chasing resolutions that fade, Chad and Megan introduce a simple but powerful framework that helps guide decisions, priorities, and daily rhythms throughout the year. They unpack how choosing a word becomes a filter for decision-making, a posture for everyday life, and a way to stay aligned with what matters most — especially in seasons that feel busy, overwhelming, or unclear. At the heart of this episode are four foundational pillars that shape their family, leadership, and legacy: The Four Pillars of Advancement Faith – Building everything on a deep, anchored relationship with God Family – Being intentional with marriage, children, and grandchildren Fitness – Stewarding physical, mental, and emotional health for longevity and impact Focus – Living with clarity in work, calling, and stewardship Rather than chasing perfection, this episode emphasizes progress, self-awareness, and sustainable growth. Chad and Megan share real-life examples from their marriage, parenting, grandparenting, and careers, showing how alignment leads to peace, clarity, and momentum. You’ll also hear practical encouragement for listeners who feel behind, overwhelmed, or stuck. This episode reminds you that growth doesn’t happen overnight — and that even choosing one pillar to focus on can begin meaningful change.

    Who Are You Becoming? Lessons on Identity, Calling & Faith From Peter

    Every season of life is shaping you into someone — but the real question is: Who are you becoming? In this week’s conversation on Legacy Life with the Lacefields, Chad and Megan explore identity, calling, and spiritual growth through the life of Peter, one of Scripture’s boldest and most imperfect disciples. What began as a quiet time reflection turned into a powerful discussion about how God forms our identity long before we feel qualified. Peter wasn’t polished. He wasn’t predictable. He wasn’t perfect. But he was willing — and that willingness shaped his calling, leadership, and legacy. Chad shares the moment he realized his own personality mirrors Peter’s: bold, passionate, unfiltered, and deeply committed to learning as he goes. Together, he and Megan unpack what Peter teaches all of us about becoming who God designed us to be, even in seasons of doubt, stretching, or refining. This episode encourages listeners to stop striving for perfection and instead focus on becoming — becoming faithful, becoming teachable, becoming courageous, and becoming the person God can build a legacy through. You’ll hear: Why your identity in Christ matters more than your qualificationsHow Peter’s boldness and imperfections reveal our own journey of growthWhy willingness is more important than perfection in your callingHow God uses your personality, passion, and mistakes to shape your purposeWhat it looks like to lead your family, your marriage, and your life with disciple-level couragePractical ways to “feed your sheep” in everyday momentsScriptures Shared Matthew 14:29 — Peter walks on the water Luke 22:32 — Strengthen your brothers John 21:17 — Feed my sheep 1 Peter 5:2–3 — Shepherd the flock under your care Legacy Takeaway You don’t become who you’re called to be through perfection — you become through obedience. God uses your passion, your process, and even your failures to shape your identity and build a legacy that lasts.
