Hill Country Institute Live: Exploring Christ and Culture
Hosted by Larry Linenschmidt, Hill Country Institute Live is an ongoing conversation about issues of concern and interest to the Church today. We visit the life and works of giants of another day, such as C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien and also spend time with people and ministries doing creative work to fight human trafficking, feed the poor, create quality art, be good stewards of the environment, and much more, all with the heart and mind of Christ. For more information about the events and resources Hill Country Institute provides, such as messages from our conferences on Faith & Science, Faith & Art, and impact of the work of C.S. Lewis, visit hillcountryinstitute.org

Hill Country Institute
Zack Cooper is a Senior Fellow with the American Enterprise Institute and the author of Tides of Fortune: The Rise and Decline of Great Militaries. In this conversation, Larry and Zack explore how economic growth has historically been closely linked to the development of powerful militaries. They discuss examples from the late 19th century, when robust economies of the U.S. and Germany contributed to significant military advancements. At the same time, Great Britain faced a relative decline in military capacity. They consider what lessons these historical patterns offer regarding China’s current rise and emphasize the importance of understanding and preparing for China’s expanding military capabilities.
