Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Scripture Helps at every 3 months against The Shepherd's Fellowship's every 38 months. Scripture Helps also leads on ratings volume (26 vs 1). The Shepherd's Fellowship's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 18.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
