Plot Summary

Robert Mattson's "GOD...It's a Tough Job" gives the Almighty a chance to talk to his creations one-on-one.  It gives audiences some insight into what it was like being the original Bob Villa.  Sometimes, when you "do-it-yourself," things don't end up the way you planned.  With flashbacks to Adam, Eve, Noah, Jesus, Judas (and his wife, Lucille), Moses' Grandmother and Lucifer, learn the details behind birth, betrayal, Heaven, Hell... and why there was no paperback version of the Ten Commandments.
