He’s About to Fight Cancer Again: The Road Before Surgery with Dylan Mandel | Jesus People Ep 40


Listen Later

On this Highway 1 “Road Trip Edition,” Dylan Mandel, recently re-diagnosed with cancer for the fourth time, opens up about expecting a miracle, living from the quiet place with Jesus, and walking in spiritual authority. From cliff jumps and steaks-for-breakfast to late-night intercession on a plane, Dylan shares why a scan won’t define his identity or dilute his faith. 

We unpack Ephesians 3:20 (“far more abundantly”), the Centurion’s faith that made Jesus marvel, renewing the mind (Romans 12:2), and what real masculinity looks like: surrendered prayer when no one’s watching. If you’re battling fear, uncertainty, or illness, this conversation points you back to intimacy with God, surrendered timing, and bold, expectant prayer.

Key Highlights:

  • Fourth cancer diagnosis, and choosing faith over fear in real time

  • “This year is Mine”: intimacy with Jesus as the source of all fruit

  • When scans and faith collide: renewing the mind (Romans 12:2)

  • Spiritual warfare & identity: fighting back with the Word

  • Kingdom authority: living on offense (Matthew 28:18–20)

  • Ephesians 3:20 hope: God is able to do more than we ask or imagine

  • Masculinity redefined: prayer > performance (airplane intercession story)

  • A prayer for listeners: unity, healing, and surrendered timing

  • Support the persecuted church: Global Christian Relief (aid, Bibles, shelter).

    **Global Christian Relief empowers persecuted Christians in some of the world’s most dangerous places. Think Iraq, Pakistan, and Afghanistan by delivering life-saving aid and faith-building support. Through emergency relief, Bible and discipleship resources, safe shelter, and vocational training, GCR equips believers to remain steadfast, grow in faith, and become beacons of hope in their communities.**
