http://ldsmag.com/new-mormon-and-gay-video-the-mackintoshs-story-a-son-comes-out-and-a-family-loves/ I like the revamping of the site several months ago and the stories are all touching. The other videos are good as well. There is a related discussion here: http://forum.staylds.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=7874 ” class=”bbcode_url”> http://forum.staylds.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=7874 A link to all the videos is here:

Our SP recommended them to leaders but otherwise I think they are unheralded. Families with LGBT members or friends likely watch them, but I don’t see people watching them like they do the Christmas or Easter videos. I’m sure there are several people in my ward who still think SSA is a choice and can be cured and have no idea there even is a church site. In fact, a rather vocal local member on Facebook only recently became aware of it when it was pointed out to him – but it apparently didn’t change his stance/view or even his perception of the church’s view.
I would love to do a 5th Sunday lesson using the new site and videos. I might suggest it and see what happens. Old Timer wrote:
The old site was “Mormons and Gays”; the new site is “Mormon and Gay”. That is a HUGE, important change, even with the existing issues.
Important distinction in one little “s”.
[Admin Note]: I fixed the title of the original post and the responses. It really is a critical change.
