What's the thought on a Neutral Good Ranger who worships Gorum and decides to join the Silver Crusade?
The Ranger believes in taking the best parts of Gorum and melding it with his own ranger-esque approach so he's kind of a deviant worshiper of Gorum, not against using diplomacy but not afraid to go with the stick/intimidate if diplomacy breaks down.
EDIT:
From the Inner Sea Gods, it says this about Gorum,
It is more pleasing to Gorum to see a soldier fight a score of battles in his lifetime than die in the first, and if compromises or truces mean warriors live on to fight again, he supports diplomacy over seeing every soldier fight to a pointless death,
I think this works for Silver Crusade as well. Gorum is focused on the struggle between entities and the SC is focused on eradicating demons and undead. I like the fit, because the fit itself is a struggle. The ranger was Grand Lodge and SC seems to suggest more battles against evil.

The Silver Crusade is not just a place for peace-loving talkers...
It is also a place for true men of action!
I, Reiji Nakami, First Master of the School of the Undefeated of the East, am testament to the fighting power of true fighting spirit!
A true warrior is always welcome in the battle against evil!
You would totally be okay in SC. My CG magus that worships Hei Feng is level 11 and has never had a problem.

"If you would be a member of the Silver Crusade, I am most sure that you would be able to find a place among those who bring justice to the wicked at the point of a sword."
You honestly should have no problem finding a place for your character in the Silver Crusade so long as your general aim is to bring goodness to the many and slay the wicked.

"Greetings, I'm Frederick Savage, I love to murder evil people, and am always eager to see another join the illustrious ranks of the Silver Crusade. While I don't have the tongue for it, sometimes it is better that some battles go unwaged, be it to spare innocents, or wait for a greater opportunity."
Frederick here is a chaotic-neutral worshipper of Desna. While he likes that the Silver Crusade fights evil, he still doesn't quite 'get' them entirely. He regards murder as "Killing outside of the situation of an execution." He's an absolute blast to roleplay, even as a Silve Crusader. Your concept would likely do fine.

I hate to nitpick (ok, maybe that's not quite true), but a NG character cannot "worship" Gorum according to Society play rules. You can still "venerate" him, but you'll effectively be atheist. There's an easy fix though: just shift your alignment one step to CG.
Thanks for that clarification. The guide is a bit confusing on that topic, but I found a PFS FAQ which spells it out.

My CG cleric of Gorum's take on things is that Gorum wants people to be strong and his job is to help them become so. He isn't interested in protecting people, he wants to give them the tools to protect themselves. Saving people just creates dependency and weakness, arming them and motivating them to protect themselves is better for them.
He tends to fit in just fine with other goodly types.
