Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: IGI at 100% against Church App's 52%. IGI also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.3) and iOS requirement (12.4 vs 15.0). Church App's advantage is ratings volume (997 vs 3) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
