Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Life.Church at weekly against PandoApp's every 3 months. Life.Church also leads on ratings volume (615 vs 86). PandoApp's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.
