Shamefully, I don’t think I’ve ever pondered this until now. Glad you decided to start off this forum with a bang, @Daeus, because this is interesting stuff.

Something I think is a very important factor here is that we can’t make God come alive in our writing unless He has come alive to us as well. It’s one thing to know the formula and check things off the list while trying to write compelling Christianity, but if our personal foundation isn’t strong, it’s not going to be strong in our story either. God will be forced into the vapid stereotype of “God is love, God is peace” with nothing terribly earth-shattering or thought-provoking to challenge the reader, because we as the writer don’t know ourselves.
