What does it mean to “magnify our office”?

Thomas R. Valletta

“The Prophet Joseph was often asked, ‘Brother Joseph, what do you mean by magnifying a calling?’

“Joseph replied: ‘What does it mean to magnify a calling? It means to build it up in dignity and importance, to make it honorable and commendable in the eyes of all men, to enlarge and strengthen it, to let the light of heaven shine through it to the view of other men. And how does one magnify a calling? Simply by performing the service that pertains to it’” (Monson, Pathways to Perfection, 146).
