Nature, God and Humanity
In his series of lectures, Peacocke reframes the debate between science and theology, moving away from old-fashioned hostilities and toward a more open conversation. He argues that all scientific discovery reveals something of the character of God. Emphasising process and becoming over a static understanding of the material world, he asserts that God’s direct involvement with the world creates an ongoing process sustained through his work. Biological evolution is thus a reminder of God’s immanence rather than his remoteness.
