Healing Highway is a monthly reflection from the Faith and Good Courage project, created for people who need a pause more than a push.
Hosted by chaplain and storyteller Christopher Tuttle, known as the Route 66 Chaplain, Healing Highway shares quiet, honest stories written on the road and shaped by real life. These are not sermons or self-help talks. They are moments of breath, not marathons, meant to meet you where you are.
Each month, Healing Highway offers one original story, practical reflections for everyday life, a gentle challenge rooted in kindness, a chaplain’s word for the soul, and a quiet place along Route 66 worth slowing down for.
If life has taken you on a detour, Healing Highway is here to remind you that detours are not failure. They are often where healing begins.
New episodes release on the first Sunday of each month.
Travel well. Have faith and good courage.

This closing chapter is a gentle invitation for anyone running on empty to unplug, step away, and let the road hold them for a while. Not because they're weak. Because they're wise enough to know when to let go.
