Fear and trembling is a good starting point. I don’t work out or visit /fit/ so I don’t know the meme

Are you looking for a Christian faith? If so, what denomination or sect? If you're looking to be a Christian, I would start with the Bible, and maybe try to read up a bit on its history and authorship.

That's an extremely broad and general area of study. but I would look at "The Secret Teachings of All Ages" by Manly P Hall for a breakdown of how many religions and mystical groups view God and his creation.
