I highly recommend writing your own toy version of LISP in whatever language you already know. Just enough to get the basic eval loop working (+ macros if you feel brave).
It is fun and IMHO the best way to learn LISP.
If you get stuck read through one of the many examples online and then try again without looking at those examples.
