The St. Matthew Window
Information on the stained glass windows comes from the book "The Windows and Symbolism of First Methodist Church, Birmingham, Michigan", edited by Dr. Arnold F. Runkel and privately published by the church for its members in 1966.

this evangelist began his Gospel by tracing the human descent
of Our Lord, the figure of the winged man has become his traditional
symbol. The small symbol beneath is a pen and inkwell.
