From browsing Roof's Wikipedia page (I know that it isn't a fully reliable source), the only mention I can see of religion is that one pastor claimed that he went to a Lutheran church.

I've argued with people on Twitter telling me that Roof is an example of a Christian religious extremist (as part of their argument that Christianity is just as bad as Islam). No one has ever given me a source for their claim, no matter how many times I ask. Just a narrative thing, gotta keep pointing it out so that it doesn't stick.

Based on what Wikipedia said, the only evidence of Roof's faith comes from the testimony of a single Lutheran pastor, so there really isn't any evidence for the claim.
