  • 19. The Theology of Splankna: Is It Biblically Sound?
    Jul 22 2025
    This is The Energy to Heal, your resource for all things Splankna, the faith-based inner healing modality that will help you achieve emotional freedom. In this powerful and foundational episode, host Laura Milliken is joined by Sarah Thiessen, creator of the Splankna protocol, to walk through the theological backbone of this unique healing tool. They explore what makes Splankna distinctly Christian, how it aligns with Scripture, and why the tools it uses—like muscle testing and meridian points—do not contradict biblical truth. You’ll hear how God designed the body to participate in healing and why Christians don’t need to fear mind-body tools when they’re surrendered to Christ. If you've ever wondered how Splankna differs from secular or New Age energy modalities, this episode will give you clarity and confidence. 🧠 Key Takeaways: Splankna was built with a biblical worldview at its core—not New Age theory. The protocol rests on Christ’s authority, not personal empowerment. Emotional lies are stored in the body—and can be cleared through prayer and truth. Tools like muscle testing are neutral mechanisms, not spiritual gateways. The goal is healing through God’s design, not human striving or mystical energy. Theology should inform our approach to healing—not fear or assumptions. Splankna teaches that the Holy Spirit leads the process, not the practitioner. 🔊 Sound Bites: “Splankna isn’t trying to be energy healing. It’s redeeming the tools for Kingdom use.” “Scripture is the foundation, not the seasoning.” “We trust that God made the body wise, not dangerous.” “This is prayer ministry—directed by the Holy Spirit, grounded in truth.” “Christians don’t have to abandon the tools of healing. We just need to align them with truth.” 👤 About the Guest: Sarah J. Thiessen is the founder of The Splankna Institute and the creator of the Splankna Protocol—the first Christian energy psychology model designed to honor both science and Scripture. With a Master’s in Counseling and decades of experience in emotional healing work, Sarah is a leader in the movement to provide biblically aligned inner healing tools to the church. She has trained hundreds of practitioners nationwide and is the author of “Splankna: The Redemption of Energy Healing for the Kingdom of God.” Her work centers on restoring emotional and spiritual health under the authority of Christ. 🌟 About the Host: Laura Milliken is the host of The Energy to Heal and a Master's level Splankna practitioner.
