If we are just looking at Charms, I really like the Azorius and Simic Charms, but I would replace Dimir Charm with Izzet Charm. Also, the Selesnya Charm doesn't really seem to be doing much in this situation, so I'd take it out all together and put in something like Mizzium skin for hexproof.

You would definitely need protection from enchantment exile and most cards that do that are white. Maybe put in a couple counter spells or God's Willing? You would have to boost your white and blue mana pool to do that, though. Maybe add a few fogs as well to help delay damage while you try to build devotion.
One other thing, remember gods are considered creatures in all game zones, unless they are on the battlefield without devotion, so Prophet of Kruphix would allow you to cast a god as though it had flash, even if you do not have the devotion yet. It would remain a creature until it hits the battlefield.
Also, Archetype of Endurance, though costly, would make your gods (once they hit devotion and become creatures) nearly impossible to get rid of.

The Shinen certainly does seem more efficient. In the end, I guess it comes down to wether you want an enchantment or an instant.

I don't know about magma jet for mugging. I guess it depends on your meta game, but I prefer skullcrack. Sure it only targets the player, but Satyr Firedancer fixes that. Also, I find shock to be more efficient than lightning strike, but that's up to you and whether you usually have the 1 extra mana to spare.
One more thing, why is Boros Charm in your sideboard and not the main deck? It combos with Satyr Firedancer very well, making a very good burn spell.

It is. But luckily, I already had a lot of the most expensive cards, so that made it easy.

I haven't tried it out yet and am worried about Deicide that will likely be sideboarded in many white decks. But it seems fun and look forward to playing it.

I really like it. I've been trying to figure out a good way to do just this for quite a while. Thanks!
The only suggestion I have is to switch out Prized Unicorn for Noble Quarry. Noble Quarry is cheaper mana wise and it can bestow, acting as another lure spell. They are worth about the same too.

Thanks for the review. I'll look into it.

Pharika for style and flavor. Iroas for gameplay. Ephara if for real.

Keep an eye out for Dictate of the Twin Gods from this next set. It looks like it would work great in this deck.

Continuing with the tokens, I recommend either or both Precinct Captain and Akroan Hoplite. Precinct Captain is an awesome white bear with first strike. I find that if I play him early enough my opponent won't block him because of this, then I get a 1/1 soldier to activate battalion next turn. Akroan Hoplite basically has a battalion effect that gets stronger as you get more dudes. Also, both are low on the mana curve.
I have a standard Boros deck that's doing fairly well at FNM. Take a look when you get a second. http://www.mtgvault.com/lightningfog/decks/boros-brimaz/

For 5-colors, don't forget the new Chromanticore. He's already an awesome flyer, but the ability to bestow is awesome.

Interesting. In that case, I like it.

Just so you know, Emrakul isn't legal in EDH, unless your opponents allow it of course.
I know I wouldn't.
