Start Little, DREAM BIG: Grow the Ministry YOU Were Born to Build

In her latest book, Start Little, Dream Big: Grow the Ministry You Were Born to Build, Linette offers a heartfelt blueprint for ministry-minded women who are ready to stop waiting and start building. Her voice is both prophetic and practical—like a trusted friend over coffee—sharing stories, strategies, and Spirit-led wisdom to help you take your next faithful step.

Hear from the heart of the author:

"Have you ever found yourself staring at the “skinny jeans” of your life—those dreams, roles, or seasons that just don’t fit anymore? Asking… What now Lord? "

Yeah, me too.

This little book was born from one of those moments. It’s the true story of how God turned a single bag of skinny jeans into a million-dollar outreach that now serves over 40,000 food, clothing, and infant needs every year. But more than that—it’s a practical, faith-filled blueprint for YOU.

You see, I believe God put a dream inside of you. And whether it’s a project, a ministry, a mission, or a simple nudge that won’t go away, this guide is here to help you start small, believe bigger, and build boldly—right where you are.

Inside, you’ll find:

Real-life, behind-the-scenes stories of grit, grace, and God-sized growth
A simple, step-by-step process to launch your “mustard seed mission”
Encouragement for when the middle gets messy and the waiting feels long
Questions to help you uncover your “Holy Ache” and define your “BIG Why”
Practical tools to help you start right where you are

This isn’t just my story—it’s an invitation into yours.
My mission? To help YOU build yours.

“I wish I could sit across from you at a cozy coffee shop and pour courage into your soul. But for now, let this little book be my way of cheering you on: You can do this. God is calling you. And now is your time.” —Linette Rainville

Whether you're stepping out for the first time or finding your way back to the dream God planted long ago… Start Little, Dream BIG will help you move from calling to courage, and from vision to victory.

If you’ve ever wondered if what you have is enough—this book is your reminder: IT IS.

You don’t have to start big.

You just have to start.

You are invited to join this Esther Army... Let’s build this dream—To-Get-Her!

Review

"Start Little, Dream Big is a timely companion for anyone standing at the crossroads of purpose and uncertainty. With wisdom and encouragement, author Linette Rainville speaks directly to the heart of dreamers who are waiting on God's direction and wrestling with what comes next. If you've been praying, 'I'm willing, God, but I need some help,' this book will help you discern the next step and move forward in faith."

Carol Kent — Founder and Executive Director of Speak Up Ministries
Speaker and Author of When I Lay My Isaac Down

"Linette Rainville's book, "Start Little, Dream BIG," is power-packed. Like its author, who's a holy explosion tucked inside a little lady, the pages of her book are jam-packed with eternally powerful perspectives, plans, and processes. From discovering your big, God-given "Why" to navigating "The Messy Middle," your heart will soar as you release fear and step boldly into your calling. Exchange doubt and delay as you experience biblical insights, faith-building stories, and practical steps. Grounded in Scripture and full of fun, you'll vision-write, take a resource inventory, and launch big. No matter your stage on the journey, your dream is worth the wait—and the work. If you're ready to birth the vision God has planted in your heart, this book is a must-read."

Marnie Swedberg —Author of Flow Through Vessel and International Leadership Mentor

"If you have ever wondered if your life really matters to the great plan of God, you need to read my friend, Linette Rainville's book, "Start Little, Dream Big". Linette's story is at once amazing, challenging and inspiring. Her testimony reminds all of us that God is still placing BIG dreams in the hearts of His daughters and that His power is the catalyst for miraculous results. My friend, you can be sure of this one thing— you can never out-dream the God of Creation ... the God who split the Red Sea ... and the God who turned water into wine. Just ask Linette. So, if you need a little momentum today, "Start Little, Dream Big" just might cause you to dream a new dream, or take the next step toward making your God-given dreams come true. God is not done with you yet, you can be sure of that!"

Carol McLeod — Best-selling Author and Bible teacher, Podcaster and Blogger, Author of Today is a Verb, The Rooms of a Mother's Heart, and more."

From the Author

"I wish I could sit across from you at a cozy coffee shop and pour courage into your soul. But for now, let this little book be my way of cheering you on: You can do this. God is calling you... For Such A Time as This!"

Linette Rainville's book Start Little Dream Big will first inspire you to action, then show you exactly how to carry it out. I love that this isn't just theory for Linette, but rather practical know how is woven in with her vulnerable personal story.
The core message of "Start Little, Dream BIG" is an empowering call to women to bravely embrace and act upon their God-given dreams, purposes, and callings. It emphasizes that these visions, often starting small like a "mustard seed," are divinely planted and destined to grow into something impactful. The book encourages readers to overcome fear, doubt, and past limitations ("skinny jeans moments") by trusting in God's plan, taking small, obedient steps, and leveraging the unique gifts and experiences they already possess.
This was the perfect guide to building a mission from the ground up, with God as the "Master Blueprint Designer." I loved how Linette, in her conversational way, focused throughout her book on the importance of divine partnership, perseverance through the messy middles, and reaching the ultimate goal of expanding God's Kingdom.

I remember a few years ago I found myself in a new season. I wasn’t sure where God wanted to use me, but I waited on Him. Oh it was not easy but I was determined not to step out without his direction. I appreciate this book and how transparent the author is as she shares her story.
Her zest for life and God is evident as she embraces her desire to encourage others. Each of us has a testimony to share and in this book we see how God wants us to use it to reach others. There are some people that only you can reach because you have walked where they are at right now. As you seek Him be sure to pray and ask for His guidance. The best news is that He has a 0plan for each of us.
I think about different people in the Bible that God used when they were broken, desperate and lonely. Have you ever felt like you couldn’t be used by God? Remember we go through trials to grow us, strengthen us and give us wisdom.
I like how the book illustrates how we need to use what we have overcome to get to where God can use us. When the author talked about journals I laughed. I have so many journals filled with dreams, Words from God and thoughts that have been waiting for my dream to come to pass.
After reading this book I find myself energized, pumped up and ready to go. Those words that say, “I have a purpose,” gives me hope to follow my dream and listen to God as He shows me where to minister to next. I love how the author’s ministry started and how it has changed many lives. Never give up on your dream is what I kept hearing as I read the book.
Thank you for sharing your heart and love for others. Your book has given me a renewed hope and bigger dream of where God is taking me. “Stop dreaming and start doing,” oh how that phrase makes me want to yell from the mountain top. I encourage every woman to grab a copy of this book. It can be used as a small group Bible study as women come together to encourage each other. Just think of the ministries that could happen as you share this book in your small group?
I received a copy of this book from Celebrate Lit. The review is my own opinion.

Linette has a heart of compassion and love for others. This book helped to encourage me to stay focus on the mission and jobs God has called me to do. Many times I hear negative words like ‘what you are doing is stupid. It won’t help anyone.’ But then I recall the words from Linette and her story of never giving up! May this book encourage you as well!

OK, so I bought Linette’s book for my daughter, entrepreneur of her own big dream, Mermaid Walking Boutique, after meeting this award winning author at a writer’s conference. I’m so glad this dad took the time to read the inspiring story of a woman who gives in a big way. I especially loved her story of being in church with her father when she came to know our Father in heaven. Of course her book is a guide and an inspiration for women but this ole’ man’s eyes filled with tears born from real life story. Well done!

Inspiring! Reading Start Little, Dream Big is like sitting across the table from a dear friend who tells you the truth about how challenging it could be to start ministry, then points you straight back to God’s power and promises. I love how the author weaves Scripture, raw honesty, and those jaw-dropping, divine moments into one blueprint for success. It reminded me again that God's the one writing the bigger story, and He's got me just like he did Linette Rainville.
If you’ve felt the nudge to launch a ministry, this book won’t just encourage you—it will challenge you to plant that mustard seed dream of faith and watch God do immeasurably more.
