You can simply see Jesus as a great miracle working showman by reading about the first three miracles in Luke 5, however, Luke doesn't want us to see a showman. By looking at each of the miracles a little deeper we have a deeper sense of who Jesus is & what he came to do.

In this sermon Symon looks at the temptation of Jesus that we read about in Luke 4:1-13."Because of his faithful life and sacrificial death, we, his people are free from both the power and the penalty of sin."
