Many Paths, One Heaven recognizes the individual role each of us plays in this world, yet we all share a common bond with God, who unites us.  We are all taking different paths, yet along the way we learn to coexist with each other, knowing that through faith and honest effort, all of us may reach the same final destination.  We are all different, yet in our relationship with God, we are one and the same.
