What are the most widely used simple-English bible translations in mainstream protestant churches?

For the purposes of reading longer sections of scripture as a story or for "un churched" audiences, more accessible versions can be really useful but there are a lot to choose between and some attract a lot of controversy e.g. Passion Project. The Good News bible was popular when I was a child but that was 30 years ago so I'm not sure if it has been superseded. Among mainstream protestant denominations in English speaking nations (Church of England, Baptist, etc) what such versions are most widely used? I am focusing on audiences who speak English fluently.
