In Medieval Times, stained glass windows were created to illustrate the teachings of The Bible for a largely illiterate population.
+++
They are still made, not because the population is generally illiterate but for aesthetic reasons (or to repair old ones). Nowadays such windows, if made for churches are as likely to illustrate some local theme or subject relevant to the church and its congregation as to illustrate Bible stories. They can also be for secular buildings, as decoration. Nor need modern stained-glass windows illustrate anything, but they can be simply coloured for the play of light through them.
