Learning Categorical Foundations

Hello,
I am wondering what resources are most helpful in learning the progress made by category and topos theorists in creating a "new" foundation for mathematics. So far I have:

Categories for the Working Mathematician
Topoi by Goldblatt
First-Order Categorical Logic by Makkai
An Introduction to Higher-Order Categorical Logic by Lambek

After learning from these books, where would I go to learn about the mathematical applications and framework supplied by topos theory?

Uh-oh... This should be in General Math, not General Physics. Can someone move it?
