Lessons from Moses: Obedience, Waiting Well, and Walking by Faith
This episode of Fed by the Fruit with KB takes you on a rich, Scripture-soaked journey through the life of Moses—from his miraculous rescue as a baby in Egypt to his leadership over millions of Israelites in the wilderness. KB walks through the major moments of Moses’ story: his upbringing in Pharaoh’s palace, his impulsive actions and flight to Midian, the burning bush encounter, the plagues, the Red Sea crossing, the giving of the Ten Commandments, and the establishment of the Old Covenant with God’s people. You’ll also learn how the tabernacle, sacrificial system, and the Day of Atonement all pointed forward to Jesus and the New Covenant.But this isn’t just Bible history; it’s deeply practical for your everyday walk with God. KB unpacks what Moses teaches us about waiting on God’s timing instead of forcing our own, being faithful in the “valley” and the mundane, allowing God to shape our character in hidden seasons, and stepping out in courage when He calls—even after failure. You’ll be reminded that God’s ways and timing are better than ours, that His presence is what sets us apart, and that He is still writing redemption stories through imperfect people. If you’re in a waiting season, wrestling with calling, or needing fresh encouragement to trust God, this Moses episode is for you.This episode serves as both an informative guide to embrace a healthier, more balanced lifestyle, encouraging listeners to embark on their journeys with renewed vigor and compassion.Reach out to KB on Instagram and share your thoughts.

Country Music Royalty, Kingdom Hope: Hilary Williams on Faith, Trauma, and Healing
In this powerful episode of Fed by the Fruit, KB sits down with Hilary Williams—daughter of country music legend Hank Williams Jr. and granddaughter of Hank Sr.—to share a testimony only God could write. Hilary opens up about growing up in the “Kennedys of country music,” being diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes at just eight years old, and the devastating car accident in 2006 that nearly took her life. She recounts the terrifying moments after the crash, her out-of-body experience, and what she saw and heard in heaven: streets of gold, worship, joy, and even Johnny Cash and June Carter in their glorified bodies.Hilary also shares honestly about her long road of recovery—multiple surgeries, chronic pain, PTSD, addiction to anxiety meds, and the ongoing realities of living with diabetes and a traumatic brain injury. But woven through every detail is the undeniable faithfulness of God: from Jesus visiting her as a child and promising to always take care of her, to the peace and healing she’s experienced through prayer, holistic care, and the support of others. If you’ve ever wrestled with fear, grief, or the question of where God is in suffering, this Christian testimony will encourage you to see your scars as evidence of His mercy and remind you that, in Christ, there truly is a future and a hope.This episode serves as both an informative guide to embrace a healthier, more balanced lifestyle, encouraging listeners to embark on their journeys with renewed vigor and compassion.Reach out to KB on Instagram and share your thoughts and connect with Hilary on Instagram
