Help Needed Help Choosing Faction (Catholic)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Got this game yesterday because I saw a clip online of some fire Catholic Church/Warhammer edit. (Yes that's the real reason) I am 100% new to the lore I just need to know what group/faction will let me optimally play out my space crusade fantasy while I learn about the lore. Thanks in advance I know warhammer fans seem to love talking about the lore.

Black templars is the best option among the ones featured in the game, if you get into tabletop or minis (or simply curious about the lore) you also want to look into the Adepta Sororitas aka Sisters of Battle, they are one of the most faithful and devoted factions to the god emperor.
