I think blue makes more sense because Philip, Nicolas, and Timon are there already.  Other than that I think you could be alot more creative with the special abilities.

I've always wanted a dual-brigade theme.

Putting a specific theme into two brigades is counter productive though.  The whole point of a theme is to make it work well within itself.  Having something be in more than one brigade inherently makes it harder to use.

I wasn't that creative because honestly I don't know that much about the deacons

Don't let that discourage you from coming up with fun ideas.  I think that because they have such a simple verse that a lot of "liberties can be taken" so to speak with how creative the special abilities can be.  Its not like Adam who has a really obvious banding ability. 

How about this:

Prochorus
5/6 Blue Hero
"If two or more players have the same number of redeemed souls, you may search opponent's deck for a Lost Soul and place it on top of their deck."

Stephen
7/7 Blue Hero
"If Stephen is discarded by a Pharisee or Sadducee, you may place him into your Land of Redemption as a redeemed soul."

I think the only thing I'd change about Nicanor is his brigade since he's already got a decent special ability.

Deacons are based on two play styles right now Drawing cards and Converting. I have a whole huge list of Deacon Ideas I may post some time but if any of the Deacons are remade Which they will be they will be based around these themes.

Btw Deacons are a tricolor theme and disciples are quadcolor (though Disciples are more dual color ) but these multi color themes are real.

For Stephen, I would add something that would incude revealing your SOG (after all, Acts 7:56 was the last straw for the Jewish leaders).

I give you 100% credit for inspiring me.

Yeah, pretty much
