The video introduces viewers to what Dr. Dan Brewster calls the Great Omission. This is what happens when pastors, missionaries, and seminar professors who all know about the passages in Scripture that speak about children, but ignore them. Seminary students and professors or church leaders often never address these passages, which have great theological significance. This video is 2 minutes and 22 seconds long with English audio and is suitable to people ages 15+.
