Well that's right, that is, the Lord had a huge move going (Jesus People, et.al.) in the late 60s. I don't suppose to know the internal motivations of any man, including WL. He did, according to some accounts, have much repentance in the 60s, and as mentioned, some believe his best works came out of that. After that period, other things certainly got manifested.
