I've read the same thing - somewhere - but I can't find anything permitting it in the regs, so I don't know if it's true. If it is, I imagine it would be for things like bluetooth devices that are designed to pump spotify from your phone through your car's radio. If so, I'd suspect that "100 feet" is a dreamy maximum, and that it would sound terrible in the real-life scenario you describe.
But as always, FleaBay to the rescue: a 6-watt FM transmitter! For just a hundred bucks, you can start your very own pirate radio station anywhere on the commercial FM dial. This thing should provide nice, punchy audio to your entire church's congregation. Very, very illegal, though.

How about just setting up a PA system?

I'm not sure that will be legal without an license
