"Apart from its intended recasting of covenant theology, Smith's teaching does grave damage to the doctrine of the Trinity. Smith, following James Jordan, argues that the form of unity within the Trinity is covenant. This is a serious departure from orthodox Trinitarian theology, falling into a tacit tri-theism. Instead of the classic view that the Trinity is three persons united in one being, this view argues that the Trinity is three divine persons united by a social bond. Smith's presents his final conclusion in strikingly tri-theistic terms: "God is three persons united in covenantal love.""

I'd imagine this is much how Mormons view the Godhead.

He is addressing the dangerous Auburn Avenue movement. Interesting article.
