Kia Spectra Battery Problem

I just came from full tanking my gas and as I was pulling in the my garage the car pretty much shut down ( steering locked, brake became hard, check engine, oil, battery, emergency brake, and airbag(always on) turned on. The car pretty much just shut down in gear. I didn't really make anything if it until a couple hours later I was getting ready to leave and as I was driving it died and did the same thing while I was driving.. The drive lasts 2 min before it shuts down. Each time I start up it becomes harder and harder to turn on. Help! I'm not mechanic. I checked my oil level and it was full. The battery doesn't seem to be the issue either.
