Magis (pronounced "màh-gis") is a Jesuit phrase that means "the more". It is taken from Ad majorem Dei gloriam, meaning "for the greater glory of God". Magis refers to the philosophy of doing more, for Christ, and therefore for others. It is an expression of an aspiration and inspiration. It relates to forming the ideal society centered around Jesus Christ.

It is also rooted in St. Ignatius' exercise of doing more for God. He would encourage people around him during his time and he would ask to encourage: "What have I done for God? What am I doing for God? and What MORE can I do for God?"
