"They state that he is beyond space and time and one can only wonder at the evidence they have for that."
Well, mathematically scientists can prove the existence of at least nine spatial dimensions. If one were to utilize these dimensions one could do things that are incomprehensible to our 3 dimensional mind. Did you know that if one utilize just a fourth spatial dimension that one could turn an inflated basketball inside out without ripping or tearing the ball. If God does exists which I believe he does, then he too would exist and operate using these extradimmensions.
Now think of time. We as humans exist in one dimension of time even though we only use half of it, because we can only move forward. Imagine the existence of at least one other dimension of time. For God everything along our timeline would be seen from a bird's eye view and all events along our timeline would appear to occur simultaneously.
I am not trying to say that we should give up on explaining things because of this, I think many if not most answers we seek are empirical and meant to be known. I really wish that some branch of Creationism (old earth) would bring fortha working model. Unfortunately this has been delayed primarily for two reasons.
1. They are too busy fighting evolution instead of coming up with a model.
2. Also because the scientific community has set themselves up for methodological naturalism which basically states that anything not testable must therefore not exist. Because of this the scientific community has cultivated themselves to beg the question to which the answer will always be naturalism.
