"Colossae"-al Giants

Here's one more for you all! This one I have been using ALOT because I am excited about the new "The Church of Christ" card. I haven't received my new cards yet but this deck list has all the cards that I think would best fit this deck, but, as always, I need your help as I am not very good at building even though I've been playing for 12 years. I really enjoy this defense because it can be brutal to small offenses. I will post now and  then explain some "ins and outs" that I've struggled with for this deck. Here it is:

Cards: 52 (* = GoC)

Souls: 7
* Harvest
* Shut Door
Humble
Distressed
Imitate
Lawless
Forsaken

Doms: 7
SoG
TSC
AoTL
Woes
CoTK
*Burial
Shipwreck

Support: 6
Beseiged
* The Church of Christ
5th Seal/JS
Book of The Covenant
Hebron
5th Bowl of Wrath


Heroes: 10
Apphia
Paul
Barnie
Philemon
Justin Martyr
Polycarp
Watchful Leaders
Peter
Claudia
Epaphras
Faithful Witness
Onesimus

GE's: 8
Word of Christ * Spirit as a Dove
Elymas Struck Blind * The Ascension
Outpouring * Day of Judgement
Christ's Triumph  * Good Seed
Life Through Christ Blood of The Lamb
Faith of Barak
Overcome!
* The Lord's Prayer

EC's: 8
Saph
Goliath
Philistine Armorbearer
Ahiman
Sheshai
Talmai
Og, KoB
High Priest Ananias
PoZ

EE's: 6
Lurking
Wages
S. Sheep
*Clinging to Power
Bringing Fear
Seized by Rioters
Abandonment


Reserve: 10
John, TA
Blood of The Lamb (Moved to Main Deck and replaced with Life Through Christ-moved from main deck)
YWR
Goliath's Curse
Flying Scroll
Foreign Spears
Hebron (Moved to Main and replaced with * Authority of Christ)
Lahmi's Spear
Goliath's Armor
K.o.T. (replaced with * His Sacrifice)


*Update to the update...lol!* After building this deck on Lackey and realizing there are so many more enhances to benefit from John's abilities and the meek heroes created from TCoC, I've revamped this deck quite a bit. More "Ins and Outs":

Hebron moved from Reserve to main since all but one of my EC's are giants. I think this works better in MD than Reserve.
Added 5th Bowl to get a CBN play off John and also have another negate for the "Dark" side....lol.
Apphia out due to not having any real good enhances to get back.
Peter out (This was a tough choice. I originally had him in for healing purposes and for one enhance. I know 1:1 is not a good thing in a deck. And I can't always depend on him healing. CM him off the table and  that's the end of Pete.)
Word of Christ, Christ's Triumph-These could be brought back with Apphia since "Christ" is  in the title. However, I needed room for better GoC cards so I had to cut them which caused me to cut Apphia. Although, I have thought about keeping this at 52 and adding her and Christ's Triumph back in to add another "YWR" -like rescue. I could use some thoughts on that one.)
Outpouring out and Day of Judgement in: Outpouring is such a good card but DoJ is sooooo much better. I get Soul Gen off the star ability and a CBN banish off Follower Token.
Good Seed in for Christ's Triumph: An easy way to get my good enhances out of Reserve and a way to add a much needed character to battle....um.....John....or Paul to get the D2. As I said , CT was a tough choice because of it's YWR-like ability.
Switched out Blood of The Lamb from Reserve and put it in MD and then put Life in Reserve. I thought that was a better option to get another potential battle winner into MD.
Added TLP for support to get to my other enhances.
Cut Abandonment to get closer to 50...another tough choice because it's a CBN if banding occurs. With Forsaken in LoB, Abandonment may not be needed.
Swapped out Hebron to MD for reasons stated above to make room, also, for AoC as a game winning card off of a Follower.
Cut K.o.T-Again, tough choice, but I believe there will be more N.T. decks than  O.T. decks so I think it was a logical decision and put in His Sacrifice, because it's just plain awesome! I can get it with Book  or Good Seed.
