About the Author

Barry Long had two children by a first marriage and cared for his stepsons in two subsequent partnerships. He had lived a family life and, by the time he became known as a spiritual teacher, he was well-equipped to answer the questions that parents in his audiences would ask about bringing spiritual values into the home. The parenting and education of children was a subject dear to his heart.
