Summary/Abstract: This study aims to present the contribution of the anglican, biochemist and theologian, Arthur Peacocke, to the dialogue between science and theology. It will focus on the scientific perspective about God's continuing care for His creation and on the response from Christian theology to scientific progress. The topic will be presented both from a scientific perspective, using Peacocke's research, and from a Christian theological perspective, with reference to the thought of the Eastern Holy Fathers. Arthur Peacocke was able to integrate his research with theological discoveries, thereby perceiving the entire world as the product of a supreme reason, which has established an order and remains present in His creation, leading it towards its ultimate purpose. The conclusion is that the world is not separate from God, but is in God. The process of creation is an ongoing process, so God is not a creator from the past, but is creating in the present. Arthur Peacocke's work provides a solid basis for understanding certain processes of nature, as an order established by God in creation. He also sets a credible standard for the interaction between science and theology, acknowledging the different language systems and attitudes of science and theology, and valuing the contribution that both disciplines can make to this dialogue.
