Guests sang religious songs, gave readings or talked about their lifestyles and spiritual feelings.

The series was broadcast on Sunday evenings. The final series was moved to Sunday afternoons. Highway was replaced by Sunday Morning with Secombe in which he would broadcast from the venue of the following Morning Worship service.

In the late 1990s, Secombe often presented the BBC programme Songs of Praise, which until 1992 competed directly against Highway in the Sunday evening slot.
