This paper considers the issue of God’s presence and action in the world from two philosophical and theological perspectives: the thought of the Eastern Church Fathers (from the fourth to the sixth century) and process philosophy and theology (the twentieth century). The first section is devoted to the patristic distinction between divine acts and essence. The second part compares patristic ideas with the theory of Whitehead and his contemporary partisans. The Eastern Church Fathers as well as process philosophers developed the concept of panentheism, which makes it possible to explain both the immanent presence God in the world and His transcendental character.
