Discussion Questions

Ask these questions to create a conversation with your family!

1. On the chalkboard, Mr. Brown wrote this precept: “When given the choice between being right and being kind. Choose kind.” What is an example of a time when you must make this choice?

2. Auggie often wanted to wear a mask to hide his face. Colossians 3:12 gives us something better to wear: “Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience.” What does it look like to wear kindness around wherever we go? 

3. When Jack Will realizes how much he hurt Auggie, he pursues reconciliation. Ephesians 4:32 says, “Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as Christ forgave you.” Share a time when you forgave someone who hurt you. 

4. The kind Principal, Mr. Tushman said to Julian’s parents: “Auggie can’t change the way he looks. Maybe we can change the way we see.” What are some ways we can see others the way God sees them? 

5. Miranda let Liv take the stage toward the end of the movie. What are some ways we can go out of our way to give others our spot?
