I learned using Elisp, it didn't make a better programmer, but I am much more pragmatic now.
Use the 3 schemer books The little schemer, the seasoned schemer and the The Reasoned Schemer, and read Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs. You can work through the books using clojure or other more appealing languages.

Elisp isn't really functional ... everything is dynamically scoped so you don't get closures and the entire language is built for mutating state.
