Deck Construction
I took 1 Kings, 1 Priests, and 1 Patriarchs to hedge my bet regardless of which deck I got. The bummer was I opened Balaam's Disobedience, Ruth Meets Boaz, Joseph Before Pharaoh, Begging for Grain, and another white enhancement in my Patriarchs pack... I traded a couple of the cards to get Flaming Sword and Sisera from my opponent.
I was blessed with the I deck in sealed and had 2 additional negates to add to the already negate heavy I deck. I also had a Teal site + Site Doubler LS.
Game Notes
I did start a couple games by only drawing 0-1 Lost Souls in the first 4 turns. The defense only gave up 2 LS in 4 rounds (not counting SoG rescues) en route to +14 differential.
*Asterisks indicate cards added to base starter. (I dropped Selfish Kinsmen and Water to Wine)

Unfortunately I never got to play you but your deck looks pretty nice. Sisera is a sweet add against the J deck Judges too. I'm surprised you took out Selfish Kinsman as opposed to Nabal or Achan who aren't as helpful most of the time it seems. Also, you should add which packs you took so everyone knows.

I find Selfish Kinsman to hurt more than help in most of my games as my numbers don't get big enough to combat Samson or the Ruth Band. I would rather be able to play my negates and use their ability. It worked great for me.
Updated my first post with the packs I used and the good stuff I drafted for my opponent...
