In this episode, Laura Milliken is joined by Sarah Thiessen, founder of The Splankna Institute, to answer a question many Christians are asking: Is Splankna New Age?
Sarah brings clarity, biblical grounding, and deep experience to this conversation, explaining how Splankna incorporates the tools of energy psychology within a framework that honors the authority of Scripture and the lordship of Jesus Christ. They explore spiritual boundaries, the importance of discerning the source of healing, and how to navigate the gray areas of inner healing without compromising faith.
