Mark
Author Matt Gordon puts together a masterful blend of essays that satisfyingly serve the dual role of being both an inspiring devotional as well as a thoughtful and substantive study of the Gospel of Mark. With humor and relevance, Mark: My Words - Encounters With Jesus appeals in the richest of ways to both the most devout of believers and the seeker still exploring the merits of a Christian life. Jesus offers a way. But what happens when Jesus is moved off the cover-when Christianity becomes a series of petty rules or political positions? When the church devolves into a slick spiritual marketing firm? This winsome book, a snapshot into the Gospel of Mark, depicts Jesus-the way he encounters the world, and the way people encounter him. With wit and relevance, Mark: My Word invites the reader to do the same: encounter Jesus and his way.
The Monkeys of God
In a helter-skelter world, it is nice to have a soothing voice. In this offbeat collection of clever, concise humor pieces, Matt Gordon provides an easy-going antidote to the hectic pace of life. Whether it is featuring the ludicrous nature of online communication, a surprise marital rollerblading misadventure, or the battle between the author and a local Walmart greeter, The Monkeys of God will challenge readers to slow down, to look around, and, mostly, to laugh. Recommended (by the author) for those who like the works of any of the following people: The Beatles; Leonardo da Vinci; Edgar Allan Poe; J.K. Rowling; David Sedaris; William Shakespeare; Jay Z and/or Beyonce; Stephen Spielberg; CS Lewis; Coldplay; Ernest Hemingway; Socrates, Plato, and the Gang; Dave Barry; Any Country Music Star Ever; Poets; any of the Founding Fathers of the United States of America; or any other really famous person--past or present--you happen to appreciate. If you like any of that, you'll love this.

Hard-Boiled Hollywood
Two spectacular dead bodies—Elizabeth Short, known as the Black Dahlia, found dumped and posed in a vacant lot in January 1947, and Marilyn Monroe, found dead in her home in August 1962—bookend this new history of Hollywood’s postwar transition. Short’s murder called attention to the lives of the many disenfranchised in Los Angeles; she was, after all, one of them. Monroe’s death involved the entourage inhabiting her movie star orbit: quack doctors, gangsters, Hollywood celebrities, the FBI and the CIA, and, inevitably, the Kennedys. Hard-Boiled Hollywood focuses on the many lives lost at the crossroads of a dreamed-of Hollywood and the real thing following the collapse of the studio system as celebrities, moguls, mobsters, gossip mongers, and industry wannabes came into frequent contact and conflict.
