Sarah Palin describes her church as a bible-believing Christian and says she attends a non-denominational bible church in an interview with Time Magazine.... the Church she attended is hard-core laying-on-the-hands healing, strict, literal interpretation of every bible phrase church. The phrase "Non-denominational bible based" has meaning. See Time Interview where she describes her faith as such:

Sarah Palin’s pastor often uses this quote to justify the church’s beliefs:
1 Timothy 2:11-12 — "A woman should learn in quietness and full submission. I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent."
John McCain met her, liked her, and knew she would bring Pentecostal Fundamentalists out.... So "why not?" it will help me get elected. But, all Christians are not so extreme. Many Christian conservative swing voters get the danger and recklessness of asking a Hockey Mom who got swept into Alaska’s governorship a year and half ago on a wave of anti-corruption be the vice president for a 75 year old president who has had cancer four times. And she is being charged with serious corruption herself to add another layer of foreboding.
Be afraid, be very afraid. ... She is not Hillary, She is not Hutchinson. She is scary.
