Carter Phipps is an author, journalist, and leading voice in the emerging field of Evolutionary Spirituality. For the past decade, as executive editor of EnlightenNext magazine, he has been at the forefront of contemporary spiritual, philosophical, and cultural discourse, and his writings have played a key role in making important new thinking accessible to a wider audience. His first book, Evolutionaries: Unlocking the Spiritual and Cultural Potential of Science’s Greatest Idea, will be published by Harper Perennial in June 2012. Phipps’s areas of interest and expertise range from metaphysics to politics to science and technology, and his writings combine the careful rigor of investigative journalism and a passionate personal concern for the development of human culture. In 2009, his feature article A Theologian of Renewal was awarded a Gold Award for Editorial Excellence from Folio, the leading magazine industry awards. Phipps regularly presents at conferences; has spoken at educational institutions including Brown University, JFK University, and the Institute for Transpersonal Psychology; and participates in leadership gatherings, including Deepak Chopra’s Evolutionary Leaders Forum, the invitation-only Assembly of Leaders prior to the 2004 Parliament of the World’s Religions, and the 2008 Edinburgh Festival of Spirituality and Peace. He has appeared on BBC Radio’s “Reporting Religion” and New Dimensions radio, and is a regular guest on Deepak Chopra’s Wellness Radio on Sirius. He is a board member at EnlightenNext and the Open Future Institute. With the publication of “Evolutionaries” in 2012, Phipps is poised to become the go-to expert on evolutionary spirituality and the broader evolutionary worldview out of which this potent and relevant new vision is emerging.

We live in one of those rare moments in human history when the deepest metaphysical questions are being turned over and examined as we search for a new orientation that will serve us for the next millennium. It would be hard to find a better guide into this fascinating conversation than Carter Phipps.
