Faith, Impact & Real Estate: Jason Kurima
Behind every investment property, podcast episode, and business venture is a clear sense of purpose. For Jason Kurima, that purpose is rooted in faith, legacy, and a desire to uplift others through entrepreneurship. As a real estate investor, business owner, and podcast host, Jason is building more than a portfolio, he’s building a life of lasting impact.
From House Flips to Kingdom-Focused Business
What started with flipping houses has grown into something much bigger. Alongside his wife Haley, Jason leads The Illuminate Real Estate Group and manages 82 apartment units, a variety of local businesses, and a mentorship-driven podcast. Their current ventures include Kurima Real Estate Investments, iPhone Restorations in Monett, iProtect in Joplin, two billboards, an event center, and The Kurima Podcast.
Though the business side is impressive, what truly sets Jason apart is his bold vision and unshakable foundation in faith. Every step of the Kurimas' journey is guided by a commitment to serve others, create generational wealth, and inspire deeper purpose through entrepreneurship.
Creating a Legacy with Faith at the Center
Jason’s approach to business isn’t about chasing quick wins. He’s focused on the long game—building things that matter, pouring into others, and letting God lead the way. Whether he’s mentoring future investors, hosting an episode of The Kurima Podcast, or stewarding a new venture, his heart is always in the same place: impact over ego.
At the core of his work is a deep belief that faith and business don’t have to be separate. In fact, he sees them as deeply connected. For Jason, success looks like doing meaningful work, living generously, and pointing people back to something bigger.
A Leader Who Leads by Example
Jason is known for his practical wisdom and no-nonsense encouragement. He brings clarity to complex decisions, reminds people of their God-given potential, and shares openly about the challenges and wins of the entrepreneurial life.

Whether you're a new entrepreneur, a real estate enthusiast, or simply someone who wants to build with purpose, Jason’s story will leave you both grounded and inspired.
