Successful Long Island businessman Joe Benjamin is a modern-day “Job” with a high-maintenance wife, ungrateful children, and wise-cracking household help. Just when it seems things couldn’t get any worse, he is visited by Sidney Lipton, a compulsive film buff and “Messenger from God.” Sydney’s mission: to test Joe’s faith and report back to “The Boss.” The jokes and “Tests of Faith” fly fast and furious in this hilarious contemporary morality tale like no other.
