M-) is paredit-forward-slurp-sexp in both LightTable and Emacs.

The key difference here is that LightTable can eval-in-place "live" inside a 
file without you needing to do anything but type code. You don't need to send 
expressions to a REPL and the results are displayed inline, right next to the 
expression, rather than in a separate REPL window or the minibuffer.

Essentially you get the benefit of the REPL and fast feedback without needing a 
separate REPL buffer.
