A Family Home Evening Tip

Yesterday we sat in on a meeting with the missionaries that was taught by our manager of training. He showed some clips from a website called One in a 8 million. As far as I can tell this is a web site put together by a group in New York City. Each week for 52 weeks they featured an individual. There are a variety of people -- some with problems and some just regular joe blows trying their best to live their lives. Obviously this is not a church web site, nor does it feature church members (altho one of the features is about a Mormon Missionary). They are about 2 minute clips, much like Mormon.org. But the interesting part of the session was the discussion that followed after they showed a clip. The missionaries were then asked 3 questions.
1. What did you learn about that individual by watching this?
2. How does God feel about this individual?
3. How could the gospel help them?
Very interesting discussions followed. I thot it might be fun to do with a family.
(the clips they showed were Joseph the Grandfather and The Walking Miracle (a little gory).
I will be interested to know if anyone tries this and how it works.
Happy FHE
