Does not meet WP:GNG. From the sources provided two are not reliable (blogspot), two are not independent from the subject (Concordant Publishing), and one is from an offline printed source which appears to be a trivial mention. I did not find further coverage doing a Google search. Article was prodded in June 2009. Alan Islas (talk) 17:35, 21 September 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete - Thomson was an editor and occasional contributor for a minor religious publication, apparently without any specific credentials. Does not seem to be meet criteria for notability. If the same benchmark were used consistently, we would need many thousands of new articles for contributors to thousands of periodicals.-- Jeffro 77 (talk) 07:32, 22 September 2020 (UTC)
