Discussion Questions after seeing this film:

1. What are the things that concern you enough and that you feel
   passionately about, that you would consider spending your time and energy working on?
2. How could people learn to love each other more and be better “neighbors?”
3. Do you have examples to share of people you know (maybe you?!) who have made a difference to people, a program, a situation?
   Describe those people.
4. How would you need to change to be more like the people who made a difference?

   
   

   The theme of this documentary film is:
   • Do something to improve the world (even if it’s a small something)
   • Urge others to do something, too
   • Do that something soon (… a better time may not come!)
   • Notice, stop, act
5. Be like the “Good Samaritan” who noticed the man in the road, stopped, and acted to help the injured man recover from his
   injuries, even as others passed by who could have helped, but chose not to. (Luke 10:33)
6. “Next Steps” after seeing this film.

 

White Noise Productions worked with us to make a documentary film encouraging citizen action to make the world better (less talk, more action.)  Pictured is film maker Rus Thompson shooting footage of the Rev. Steve Wilde interviewing Sunnyvale Presbyterian Early Learning Center students on their thoughts about making the world better.
