Stripped door hinge

I have a door hinge that has come off the door. The screws on the door side have been stripped. What is the easiest way to fix this problem? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I am sure this is an easy fix but I am a first time homeowner who is not a very handy person. Thanks in advance for the help. -Travis

    If the wood in the door is stripped, I would drill out the screw holes and insert pieces of appropriately diameter (match the hole) wooden dowels with a little glue. Let it dry a few hours then just remount the hinge with the original screws. Jerry in San Ramon, CA
