The bible says that if you have lots and lots of faith, you can handle snakes, drink poison, and apparently, play tag with lions.

But the bible also says that if you have a teeny weeny, itsy bitsy amount of faith, you can move mountains.

So, why not start with the mountains first. If you find out that you can actually move a mountain using just your faith, then maybe you can upgrade to handling snakes, or poison, or lions.
