At the Dakotas and Minnesota Methodist Foundations, we believe the most powerful change begins with honest, hope-filled conversation. That is why we are so excited to be just weeks away from launching For the Love of God, Let’s Talk—a new podcast series inviting you to explore what matters most in ministry and mission today.

We know lasting change grows out of authentic dialogue rooted in faith. That's why we’re inviting you—pastors, leaders, and all who serve—to join us. We’re just about ready to begin this new monthly series of podcasts, stories, and resources exploring the heart of Wesleyan ministry: growing resources, building legacies, nurturing leadership, and deepening care for our communities.

What To Expect

• Discover inspiring episodes on leadership, money, legacy, care, mission, and more
• Experience dialogue rooted in real-life ministry and Wesleyan tradition
• Gain practical tools and hear real stories you can use in your church and community
• Join the conversation as part of a growing, connected network

Each episode will feature ministry leaders and stories of generosity that are transforming our communities. We want to create space for honest conversation—about what’s challenging, what’s possible, and what’s next.

Meaning Behind Our Logo

The For the Love of God image was created with care and intention. At its heart sits the phrase “Love of God”—the center of our work and witness.

The inviting font reflects kindness and openness, while the design—a map pinpoint—symbolizes our presence everywhere across the Dakotas and Minnesota. The heart, entwined with the “G” in “God,” offers a visual reminder: God’s love tugs at our hearts and guides our mission. The logo is a visual invitation to join the conversation—wherever you are.

It’s All About Heart

It’s all about heart. It is an invitation to remember why we give, why we serve, and why we believe. It’s about sharing our stories of ministry that unfold when generosity meets purpose—when ordinary people, moved by extraordinary faith, choose to build something lasting For the Love of God.

As President/CEO Sheri Meister affirms:
“When we lead with faith and respond with generosity, we unlock the opportunities God has placed in our hands. Giving is not just a financial transaction—it’s a spiritual practice. It reveals what we value, how we see God at work in the world, and the kind of future we dare to imagine for the generations to come.”

Join the Conversation

We hope you'll listen in, share your story, and help us build a movement of generosity and impact for the love of God. Join the conversation by sharing your ideas, stories, and questions. This is for all who believe the Church is a vital witness—and that together, our giving becomes a story of hope and transformation.

Follow us on Facebook so you won’t miss the first episode—and share it with your network when it drops. Let’s open new conversations and imagine what’s possible—everywhere across the Dakotas and Minnesota.

For the Love of God—let’s talk and build what’s possible together.
