They Called Me Retard - Paperback

The inspiration to tell his story can be accredited to his wife, Teresa; Gordon states that she believed his story would not only help others, but inspire them as well, regardless if they have experienced trauma within their lives. Gordon's fractured past did not hold him back from becoming a former U.S. Army Sniper, Army Ranger, and Army Special Forces (Green Beret). With his relentless desire to overcome and his relationship with Jesus Christ, the challenges he faced in academia did not hold him back from achieving multiple degrees. He holds a bachelor's degree in Business administration, a Master's degree in Ministry, and a Master's degree in Leadership. Prior to retiring from the Army, Gordon was called by God to change careers and start a new career with God. Gordon is currently the senior pastor of Alive in Christ in Kennewick, WA, and is now a warrior for God.
