First draft again on a new deck. Idea behind this one is bringing two possible win scenarios in; Gain life through Martyr of Sands and/or Goldenglow Moth to pull out Serra Ascendant on turn two, and have a 6/6 with Flying and Lifelink. Or, if the game somehow draws out a little longer, gain enough life through the use of Martyr of Sands and Goldenglow moth for Felidar Sovereign's ability to end the game.
Sigil of the New Dawn potentially keeps your Martyrs coming back, and offers you your Goldenglow Moths again and again, provided you have the mana. Same for your Ascendants. Emeria, the Sky Ruin also helps this along if you miss the opportunity to save your Martyrs, and Serra Ascendants Moths later in the game.
There's enough damage mitigation through Holy Day, Condemn and Dawn Charm to keep you going if you find yourself floundering for a few turns, and Divine Offering and Solemn Offering may get rid of some of those pesky lockdown enchantments that might stop your Serra Ascendants from getting out and/or attacking while bulking up your life totals.
Plenty of second chances in this one.
Obvious weaknesses against red burn spell and goblin decks early on, and blue decks armed with many counterspells and rebound creature cards.
Opinions? Questions?

Having used this deck before, I very strongly suggest not using Sigil (its usefulness is debatable, but it's not integral to the point of the deck) and instead using [card]Angelic Chorus[/card]. Another thing which may help you is to replace two of your Martyr of Sands with [card]Rhox Faithmender[/card]. Martyr is excellent, but if you already had a Rhox out and then used Martyr's ability, the effect would be doubled.
