Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Life.Church at weekly against Ridgepoint's every 16 months. Life.Church also leads on ratings volume (615 vs 4). Ridgepoint's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
