That's only partially true. The paper that put Hawking and Penrose in the public eye back in the 70s concluded that if the universe contains mass and if it is governed by the laws of special relativity, then it had to have a cause that is transcendent over matter, energy, space, and time. Hawking has been trying to get out of that bind ever since (ala A Brief History of Time), but that the universe of the big bang requires a transcendent entity is pretty solid physics at this point.
The only question is whether that Entity is sentient and personal or not. I would argue that the fine-tuning of the universe to make it suitable for life points to a personal, intelligent Creator rather than a blind source or process.
Ergo, the theist is on pretty solid ground to say that our current understanding of the universe points to the God of the Bible: A transcendent (outside of space), eternal (outside of time) Being of neither energy nor matter, One of virtually infinite power and intellect who is keenly interested in the creation and continuence of life.
Shalom.
