Does the Bible version matters?

Hello everyone!

I live in a small village in France and I do not have a church near me ; I read and listen to the ESV Bible as it's the one I prefer.

I try to find a Church online that uploads their sermons so I can listen to them regularly to learn more, but I find it very hard to find churches who uses the ESV. Most of those I come across use the KJV or the modernized KJV.

Will it cause a difficulty if I don't have the same Bible as the pastor I listen to?

Thank you very much.

Different Bible translations just make it a little harder to follow along, that's all. If English is not your first language, that might be a bit harder still.

The ESV doesn't seem rare in the US. Are you looking for a specific denomination?

Thank you for your answer.

I tried to find Baptist churches on SermonAudio because I'm not yet sure if I agree with Reformed / Calvinistic views on salvation and all.

I found some ESV Bible churches, but they were all Reformed.
