I'm not seeing what Tabernacle will target as you only have one single-brigade white enhancement (Love Righteousness), so I would say it's not worth it, unless you modify the enhancements to be such that more can be targeted by Tab.  Keep in mind that if you thing Today, Warning, etc are single-bridge they're not, based upon the wording of how Tab targets (at face value those cards are dual brigade, with white and brown being those two brigades).

I'd definitely recommend running Mordecai. I slept on him for too long but he is great in rotation with Royal Parade/Faith Unbowed. Having CBN enhancements puts a ton of pressure on opponents not to give up initiative. Personally, I consider the Justin Martyr package to basically be a staple in this style of white. White has some nice searching and really strong mid to late game rescues once Music Leader/24 Elders are setup with protection. However, musicians lack consistent drawing especially early game and Justin is a great solution to this problem. He is also a great matchup against the particular defense you are running, which seems to still be relatively common. However, there probably isn't enough room for him in your current list with the Throne of Grace/Tabernacle focus.

Hate Wickedness and Warning Against Rebellion as well (I think WAR counts, don't remember for sure), but yeah, probably not worth it just for those especially since ML gets them back too. And I don't think you have enough other Arts to justify it for holding BotC.

Removed tab and rev and awe to get to 50 and add faith unbowed.  Added Mordechai and daniel to reserve for Damascus and priests of Christ

I just realized, in white you could have 3 turns of cbn protection for heroes with temple dedication,  life through Christ, and faith unbowed, so thats why i added daniel (hes also just real good on his own so theres that)

Like Today, WAR doesn’t count since it’s dual-brigade at face value.

WAR and today would work for throne of grace right? Since that specifies good enhancement

Ive been workshopping this for a while and made a lot of changes since it was last posted, so thought i would necropost this to see if theres any feedback for where the decks at now.  Could use some more soul gen maybe, also maybe Terrifying Beast in somewhere?  Any advice welcome! Thanks and Godbless

What is Covenant with David getting for you? I don't see any Site/Good Fort on the list to grab with the GE side. The Artifact side gets David if you haven't drawn him but that hardly seems worth it. If it's primarily fodder for 24E then it might be better in the Reserve.

You have a lot of Artifacts, some of which should probably remain active most of the time, but nowhere to activate them beside the artifact pile. The Tabernacle or Golgotha both help that and give main deck targets for Cov w/David. Solomon's Temple could also work instead of Tabernacle and gives Temple Dedication more purpose.

The Lord Goes before you is too good not to use. It can be leveraged as a CBN battle winner in a format where those are very few. On characters like Hannah and David, the Contrite it's almost a sure thing in a format where CM is scarce.

Lurking is a risky play with Matthew running around. It doesn't feel like your defense has adjusted for him. You're still doing "what used to work."

Without having Emmaus Road & Delivered to get to Denarius ASAP, do you really get enough value to justify running Denarius and 2 gray cards in an orange defense? I'm pretty sure the answer is no, but I might be missing something. I'd rather see The Serpent, Damsel and DoU (plus maybe Confusion).

Priest of Zeus feels a little splashy here, but he can be grabbed by Wages and if played pre-game with Darkness provides a solid counter to some otherwise powerful first turn potential for your opponent.

Have you visited the Land of Redemption today?

Thank you for all your advice Gabe!

Cov with david gets Babble from reserve when played on david and gets out david and 4 ECs.  Usually i use it to get kot or abaddon then shuffle it with 24 and get it back with music leaders.  Would def like another thing to search for with its enhancement side

I could see adding tabernace, the problem is making room for it.  It was in previous builds but i took it out because it ended up only being in there for book to sit in, may be worth it though

Lurking is so good with Abaddon i have a hard time taking it out, but i see what you mean, something to think about

The Lord goes before you is another really good card, just cant find room for it usually.  If i change the defense i could see adding it to reserve for plot to kill

PoZ is always good, going to try golden cherubim instead.  With all the chose the blocker out there, having an ec you cant play enhancements on is like a free rescue
