Your focus in the “real world” as opposed to the mission world is completely different. Your full time job is teaching gospel which studying scriptures is a huge part of that. In the real world a big part of your life is going to work, coming home, working at home taking care of your family and home. You can certainly study scriptures in the morning as personal, a couple or as a family or in the evening or even at work but the time left over for you to do it full time is greatly diminished once you leave your mission and begin a family.

I raised our family reading scriptures with them when they were little, as teens etc and I don’t know about your family but there was no way they would sit still for a lengthy scripture study. It was all we could do to get them to take turns to just read them out loud.

Now I spend a lot of my time reading and studying my scriptures but I don’t have a full time job or children at home that take up my time. Actually to be completely honest a big part of my scripture study comes from Kim’s posts and my reading them thinking out loud where did he get that thought from??? Then I have to go research it lol.

At no time should we use our family and work lives as an excuse to NOT read/study our scriptures. The more we study the more we learn the more we get blessed.
