This presentation is more than interesting. It is needful on a large scale.
Most people in the traditional church or in the non-traditional church have little awareness of what is going on and what needs to change.
Seek first the Kingdom of God and his righteousness...

I agree with many of the points in this video concerning the Kingdom of God. However he seems to be making the charge of "idolatry" to all churches and believers everywhere.
Paul had a very high view of the Assembly (church), the Body of Christ. Was he guilty of idolatry?
If the video is referring to the Institutional Church only, that is a different matter.

I have written some comments on the priority of the Kingdom as well:

Yes, your pushback is warranted. He does tend to overwork things, painting with large brush strokes. I was thinking that at the end of the presentation he tried to walk things back a bit.
Yet... Ask most people about their relationship to God and the first thing which comes up is church attendance.
In the Judgment, Jesus mentions no attendance to the "rituals of worship" - important though they be:
Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me. Matthew 25:34 ff.
Good to see you, Dan. You are busy on many fronts and bringing blessings in the Lord's growing vineyard. in word, deed, and song. Keep up the drum-beat, my brother in Christ.
