Are there any online resources dedicated to the evangelization of normalfag types?

Define.

Club-going, casual-sex-having, marriage-rejecting, blaspheming normalfags. You know, the regular kind.

That's what is considered "normal" these days? Huh.

It is. I do not make this up: I almost cried the last time I went out with these types. Two drinks and you had a women who spent ten semesters learning law talk about whether she'd swallow cum or spit it out. In a bar. Among people she has known for four months or so.

>online resources on combating the normalfag menace

Do it where it's appropriate. I don't pontificate about the Saints when I'm out drinking or playing games with my friends, I tell them about these things by tying it into stories I've heard or things that have been bothering me in some way or another. Dialogue, not preaching, is how you reach people. Preaching is something you do AFTER they begin to listen. You'd be surprised how many people want the simple things and run into roadblocks

>they want a partner that won't cheat on them or hurt them, but they lack the self-discipline to hold themselves to that same standard, and aren't looking where those partners will be (i.e. church)

>they know that doing drugs and partying all the time is bad for their health, but they are unwilling to search for alternatives

>they know that most of their friendships are fairly empty in the party lifestyle but the idea of leaving them behind is irreconcilable

>they know that there's a void that can't be filled by game of suckn'fuck, but it's all they've been taught, and it's all they've known

>they, like any normal human bean, are unwilling to show these feelings because nobody wants the emotional baggage, hence why it is self-medicated with the party lifestyle

Approach it as the mediator and 'guy with answers' and you should be set.

No use in doing so, just pray for them and set a good example.

One can only listen to "muh dik, muh booze, ooga booga fuck taken people" before one wants to throw the book at them

Where have you been the last 60 years?

I've only been alive for 45 years, but I am a bit out of touch with what the kids are doing these days.

I do what I can. Most people react with animosity when you offer them unsolicited biblical advice. It's Pavlovian sometimes; if I dressed it up to say it came from a 'scholar' or 'psychologist', they'd take it at my word, and would say the advice is sound. Saying it's directly from God is like sacrilege to the material man, you have to break down the conditioning before you can offer them salvation.

here's a series that might be helpful that i've started to watch, it's R C Sproul, not sure if your OP pic denotes you're Catlick or you're just meme'ing, nor am I sure if this series is particular to the reformed/protestant tradition, but thought it might provide you what you're after
