Profile

Mihee Kim-Kort, ThM ’08, MDiv ’04, is a Princeton Theological Seminary alum, and is co-pastor of First Presbyterian Church of Annapolis, Maryland along with her spouse Andrew Kort, MDiv, 2003. She is a 4th year doctoral student at Indiana University in religious studies and a teaching fellow at the Newbigin House of Studies. Previously, Kim-Kort has served as associate pastor for College Hill Presbyterian Church in Easton, Pennsylvania (2006-2011) and United Presbyterian Church in Flanders, New Jersey (2005-2006). She was director and co-founder of the UKirk Campus Ministry program at Indiana University from 2012-2017. She has written and published for various venues, including Time Magazine, Huffington Post, Christian Century, and Sojourners, and she is the author of Outside the Lines: How Embracing Queerness Will Transform Your Faith (Fortress Press, 2018) and co-author with Andrew of Yoked: Stories of a Clergy Couple in Marriage, Family, and Ministry (Rowman and Littlefield, 2014).  She has served the larger denomination (PC(USA)) as an elected commissioner member for the Synod of the Trinity (2008-2010), an elected member for the national board of the Presbyterian Mission Agency (2010-2016), and an executive committee member for the national board of the Presbyterian Mission Agency (2012-2016). She says: "In all times, the Church, whether the local church or the seminary, gives me hope. I don't understand it most days, this hope, how it comes from something that seems so fallible and imperfect, but I know that it is because God is present there in the places that I least expect, and always, in those places that are the most human. Princeton taught me to keep hoping, keep looking, and keep showing up, and that has stayed with me."

Educating faithful Christian leaders.

“At Princeton, we had precept groups—we’d engage text and debate. That gave me confidence to have those conversations anywhere.”
