I'm not a Christian but to me it seems like it's not that important whether things literally happened like the Bible says they did. If some guy miraculously fed thousands of people with a few loaves and fish two millennia ago and never did it again it has little importance for what happens in the world today. On the other hand, the moral story that there's enough for everyone if we share what we have is as relevant today as it was then.

Unlike Muslims, who believes that the Qur'an is the word of God, Christians recognise that the bible is a collection of texts written by humans about the divine. As such these texts that have been handed down from very different times should be interpreted and read critically to be understood properly. Generally, theologians from "serious" Christian denominations views biblical literalism as a simple-minded heresy.
