If an ordinary picture is worth a thousand words, pictures fashioned of stained glass are priceless. First created in an age where the printing press was undreamed of and literacy was rare, the stained-glass windows of medieval churches brought the stories of Scripture alive not just to illumine the building but to instruct the faithful and to glorify God.The Bible in Stained Glass uses windows from churches in France, Spain, Italy, Germany, the Netherlands, England, and Wales to illustrate the words of the Old and New Testaments.
