There is so much in the world that is competing for our attentions and affections and soothing messages that put personal feelings/desires as a primary pursuit in life. The gospel is offensive - admitting we are sinners and dying to ourselves is so contrary to tempting messages disguised as love and happiness. I don’t know your son’s reasons, but I can imagine because even religious people thwart and give bad representation of Christianity. Not saying you did that, but many see Christians as hypocrites. It’s possible your son is facing many issues that his generation is facing right now and doesn’t see integrity. I’m sorry you are both going through this. Pray for him and pray for yourself. Stay involved in your church community and continue to seek the Lord. You may not see a result you want quickly or at all, but God will sustain and keep you.

I’m so sorry that you are going through this. I have experienced this to some degree. Meaning they believe verbally but live contrary.
Depending on your approach, you can search for scriptures that supports you and your heart, reach out for Godly support and/ or fast and pray while asking God for guidance.
You are not alone. Im hear if you need anything.
Certainly praying for you and your son.
Any insight into why he’s resentful? Do you know if he ever actually put his faith in Christ as Lord and Savior? I.e., did he publicly profess his faith and get baptized at some point?
Encouragement to pray, really sit in the presence of God for a while even if just in silence/meditation. Read and study the parable of the father and two sons (prodigal son) and analogies of God being a good Shepherd. Have faith in God and His primary role in salvation rather than us we are called to be witnesses of the Truth and its God and power of His Spirit that draw and convict.
