There are multitudes of other moral questions. Sexuality really isn't one unless we are talking about children or others unable to consent.

Let's see now..Morality=..1 a : a moral discourse, statement, or lesson b : a literary or other imaginative work teaching a moral lesson
2 a : a doctrine or system of moral conduct b plural : particular moral principles or rules of conduct
3 : conformity to ideals of right human conduct
4 : moral conduct : VIRTUE
The bible certainly has much to say about proper conduct including sexual conduct. I'm not sure what you mean by sexuality=morality.. as sexuality is only a small part of human conduct..the bible covers ALL human conduct, and answers all moral questions.

What church, and what sexuality? There is sexuality that is ordained by God, and is described in Biblical terms as "very very good." That is physical intimacy between a man and his wife. And there are also sexual sins, which the Bible describes as "porneia."
Issues of morality include (this list is not exhaustive) those pertaining to sexuality, honesty, reigning in (but not elimination) of fleshly appetites (including those for sex, food, sleep, power, wealth, pleasure), charity...
Jesus Christ said that the whole Law could be summed up as "Love the Lord your God with your whole heart, soul, mind, strength, and love your neighbor (including your enemy) as yourself."

Sexuality is not the only area in which God has laid down moral laws.
Morality concerns ALL human behaviors. All are very important issues.
God bless you.

No. Morality is the obedience of all of God's commandments. Sex is only a small portion of it although I do a lot of people who seem to think that is what is all about. Perhaps it is because it is the one commandment that they haven't broken hmmm?

Morality is equal to sexuality? You mean 'sex is good'? I figured that out for myself.

My conservative Christian pastor teaches that sexuality is a gift from God to be treasured, respected and most of all enjoyed. As with any gift, we are to use and enjoy it within certain limitations.
Some people want to screw like animals who have no sense, self control or self respect.
That is immoral.

Of course there are other moral questions. Questions of honesty, questions of compassion, questions of peace...
