This collection of true stories is written by Mihee Kim-Kort and
Andy Kort, a married clergy couple who met while they were in
seminary. They share their unique perspective on the joys and
challenges of ministry in alternating segments, forming a
collective narrative that illuminates the inner-workings of a
clergy marriage, even as it inspires with heartfelt tales of life
in ministry. Throughout the book Mihee and Andy relate their
respective impressions of shared experiences, revealing inherent
differences and potential sources of conflict, but also
demonstrating how they work through their differences, communicate,
and collaborate to make the most of their strengths. With twenty
years of ministry experience between them, a blue Subaru Outback
crammed full of child carseats, a tired boxer dog named Ellis, and
life experience in three states, Andy and Mihee have struggled with
infertility, survived the threat of foreclosure, traveled abroad
and led mission trips together, and through it all remain yoked
together. This tale of endurance is only made possible by hard
work, sympathetic friends, endless conversations, countless cups of
coffee and bottles of beer, and the grace of God.

God's love for us breaks every boundary. So should our love for
each other.Mihee Kim-Kort is a wife, a mom, and a Presbyterian
minister. And she's queer. As she became aware of her queer
sexuality, Mihee wondered what that meant for her spirituality. But
instead of pushing her away from God, her queerness has brought her
closer to Jesus and taught her how to love better.In Outside the
Lines, Mihee shows us how God, in Jesus, is oriented toward us in a
queer and radical way. Through the life, work, and witness of
Jesus, we see a God who loves us with a queer love. And our faith
in that God becomes a queer spirituality--a spirituality that
crashes through definitions and moves us outside of the categories
of our making. Whenever we love ourselves and our neighbors with
the boundary-breaking love of God, we live out this queer
spirituality in the world.With a captivating mix of personal story
and biblical analysis, Outside the Lines shows us how each of our
bodies fits into the body of Christ. Outside the lines and without
exceptions.
