I think it’s an amazing Idea and you should totally try and get it published along with your other books. I don’t think authors should have to stick to one topic. Variety is a blessing.

No offence but unless your intentions were truly Christian then it wouldn’t be a good idea — you’d just be using religious figures in your own story because you think it’d be ‘good’. By your question title I assumed you meant that you were afraid, because you didn’t want to be write a Christian book and then contradict yourself by writing non-Christian books, which would give people pause (and cause them to think ‘and she calls herself a Christian?).
So unless you have a reason like a lesson to teach (in her going back to meet Jesus) then it’s unadviseable.
If you are Christian but are worried that people will think you’re a hypocrate for writing both Christian and non-Christian books then use a pen-name. Noone is perfect and you can write both genres this way without ‘contradicting’ yourself until you decide what you will write/what you really feel.
I have that same problem, because atm I wouldn’t call myself the greatest Christian but I can still distinguish between what I feel I should be doing and shouldn’t be doing, or what some people might feel. I want to write a *truly* Christian book on angels / demons and what happens in the spirit world during prayer (kind of like Frank Peretti) with messages, etc. because I feel I should be using my gift for God as well rather than for just my own things.
In the end what I say doesn’t matter as much as what you do, so just do what you feel would be better. References :
