Answer 1

Check out http://www.lulu.com/ if you don't want to go the traditional route. Just know that you will have to do a lot of the marketing yourself and POD books are rarely stocked in bookstores unless you make it happen by going to each book chain or store. It usually involves keeping your own stock and sending out free copies. There is some out of pocket expense here.

If you want to go the traditional route, go to google and search for "Publishers" Religion and find publishers that publish religious books. Then you'll want to check out their writer's guidelines and make sure you follow them when submitting your manuscript. You might also want to research how to write a good query letter.

ADDED: Well, making money aside (because there is very little money in writing unless you get lucky with a bestseller or have a name that will sell) and that's not why most authors (you included as you stated above) write anyway --- what route you take really depends on what you want your distribution to be. Big traditional publishers give your book distribution. Self publishing is the more difficult route because you want people to read it so it's up to you to market it so that they know where they can get it.

Personally - I suggest starting out self-publishing, especially if you have a specific audience you can target yourself. If the book is good enough - you would likely get offers from other publishers at some point anyway.

BTW - Lulu is a FREE publishing service, which means you don't even have to buy copies of your book if you don't want to. It's a great option for authors, especially with specialized non-fiction topics.
