Summary

Southside Tribe!! In this follow-up to the "Little Fox of Success" episode, KB helps tackle a truth that’s very easy to overlook — sometimes, success can be more dangerous than failure. From Saul’s downfall to Nebuchadnezzar’s pride to Israel's stubbornness, they explore how power and achievement can quietly erode faith and dependence on God, even for folks not in the limelight. We also draw parallels to today’s culture — from Kanye West’s rise and turmoil to the temptations that come with visibility and online influence, even in Christian ministry. The conversation gets extra real when KB opens up about a moment after one of his biggest shows — when the crowd was chanting his name, while heaven’s voice felt faint; an experience which led him to take time off to re-center his heart and remember his first love. With their signature honesty and humor, KB and Ameen remind us that winning isn’t wrong — but winning without humility is a recipe for disaster. Come rock with us!

0:08.0	Are you on our enemy side?

0:12.8	I'm on God's side.
0:14.4	There's his side and there's everyone else's.
0:16.4	That is true.
0:17.2	So the question is, are you on God's side?
0:20.1	You didn't pop up in God's timeline because you are
0:23.5	so whatever you think you are that now he gets to readjust and detour his agenda to yours. He won't.
0:32.1	Jesus will be Lord to you or he will be content being nothing to you and he does not have an in

0:41.7	all of our happiness,
