I don't really find the kid disturbing. It's obvious he's just imitating those around him (such as his father) and receiving positive reinforcement for doing so. I doubt he even understands half the words he's saying.
What I do find disturbing, though, are the adults in this video. The four-year old kid is speaking meaningless gobbledy#### (edit: really, that is filtered?!) and they're eating it up as if he's saying something important or significant. Since we know the kid is only repeating what he hears from others, we can safely assume that the adults also speak such nonsense on a regular basis.
I grew up in a Catholic family and am only really familiar with that faith's religious practices; is the content of this video pretty standard for evangelical Christian sects? If so, that is disturbing.

I grew up the daughter of a Pentecostal preacher. He did not preach like that though. When I was younger, I did attend some services that were like that, however. Mostly at the tent meetings/revival meetings/family camp services. The only thing I liked about the camp services is that the 'tabernacle' had sawdust poured deep over the dirt floors and I could ignore the insanity and play in the sawdust, lol - I was pretty young though. I found those types of services far more prevalent in the US Pentecostal churches, when we would attend there, whilst visiting family.
This is disturbing to me
